I just got done with an 07 gt500 at my shop, steeda pully, intake, full length headers, bassani exhaust, no cats, and a tune. Its ***** out fast, and literally chirps the tires driving it normal, its a beast. Would i rather have a new z06 over it, yea, but i would take this over a regular vette anyday i just like the rarity of it, and you wouldnt know it weighs 4000+ pounds behind the wheel.. wouldnt follow a corvette into the s turns tho.... http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c2...r/000_0531.jpg

But ???, id rather have the 700 awhp turbo carrera i just got done with

I have to give props to all the guys in the video. 4 10-11 sec cars going at it on the highway and then posting it for all of use to watch. Thats amazing. Id love to be involved in a video like that. Most races never get past setting them up on the street.

I hate when other cars come in here and everyone gets salty. That makes f-body owners look like a bunch of jack asses. Why cant we all respect other cars whether its not your taste or what try to be a little more mature. I know this is a LSX site but dont we like to see what the competition does? I do and I want ford owners to continue joining the site and showing their videos. Its not like he is posting about his engine in the lsx internal section lol.

Nice vids! Sick cars!!

I love the look on the GT500, but its stupid that it is too heavy and pricy in stock form.

On the other hand, its a beast with some minor mods, I tought the Z06 would kill it easier than that!! Your car is hot

Welcome

first off it is not clear from the video that you actually raced a c6 z06, I don't see an air scoop in the back... then think about it u got 530rwhp @ 4000lbs and you say you beat a c6 z06 (headers and catback) at 490-500rwhp? not possible. let me remind you the c6z06 weight 3200lbs... ur car is pig fat and making a few extra ponies... you raced a c6 base model and you pulled on him like crazy... I am at 490rwhp on my TA and raced a c6z06 with headers and he was on my wing all the time. again I am 3500lbs with the driver.
