depends on what you drive and your mods but I DOUBT IT.. seriously.. that comment reminds me of ricer mentality. You bet you can get him in a straight line? As opposed to what? Motocrossing? A C6 Z06 is no punk man.. gl

You'd have to do a search, but I thought someone put one in the 10's stock and like 10.8 or lower on a sticky tire.

RICER. Im sure no one cares but I got a pretty stout car. TSP 408, Moser 9" 4.30 gear, 6 speed, UMI catalog under car, and it will have spray before spring. I was talking about a drag race if your too stupid to interpit. Go vote for Obama.

I know you were talking a bout a drag race. I've been drag racing my entire life. So you're a politician now? What's Obama's platform? What are his key points of interest? You voting for Hillary? Anyways, seriously man, stout car, but please don't challenge me with politics or spelling. The word "interpit" is in fact spelled "interpret".. i know, i know, you were typing fast.....

i didnt think it was a ricer comment. He clearly know of the zo6's capabilities in all aspects of motorsports therefor he stated straight line so that people wouldnt say "well you cant beat it in x-cross or top end''. It was a clear statement and then somehow he still got a snide remark...remarkable! And who gives a **** about someones spelling. Any how... they arent that fast, I beat one at the track. I was spraying a 100 shot on my head and cam SS.

Not to CHALLENGE you in any type of way, but even my lowly LT1, which is set up for straight line performance can take said car in question. And by the way, "about" has no space. But then again you knew that, and were in a hurry to rip someone, no?
