Walked a Z06 at the Track! It worked out so I was lined up with a Z06 for the last race of the night.
We staged. Launched. I already had him by one length. I couldn't believe it. I knew once he hooked I'd see him fly by. He finally hooked and grabbed second. He put two cars on me immediately. I pulled a length on him somewhere around half track and we stayed that way through the traps.
Here's the funny part:
This guy couldn't drive to save his life. And I mean that. I think someone drove it to the track for him. When we were doing our burnouts he spun 'em about 100 yards past the tree like a rail car would. Then he burned out in reverse all the way back to the waterbox. Here are the times:
ZO6 My Z28
1.005 RT: 1.058 (snoozing)
2.187 60' 2.149
5.659 330' 5.790
8.800 1/8 ET 8.742
75.28 1/8 MPH 83.96
11.596 1000' ET 11.282
13.990 1/4 ET 13.439
94.56 1/4 MPH 104.71
I talked to the guy in the staging lanes earlier in the night. I said "what are you running, mid to low 12's?" He just laughed. Now I know why.
So officially I beat a Z06. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I would never say that I killed a Z06. This post was meant as a joke moreso than anything. I was hoping he'd run mid to low 12's since I've never lined up against anyone that fast. I'd like to see just how much faster than me that is.

Re: Walked a Z06 at the Track! Good kill! Looks like he missed 2-3 or 3-4...
I killed a bolton A4 C5 a few years ago at RT66...
I had talked to the guy earlier and he kind of gave me a little attitude... And told me it had a little done to it...
I was in my old 98SS M6... we get lined up... I run a 13.1@108mph and he runs a...... 14.2@100mph... on like a 2.3 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> .
I also drilled him off the line so I think he freaked and spun his butt off... I only cut a 2.05 60 ft.
