I love f-body's and it is my current car of choice but I also owned Vettes before.
My vette with a nittoe 555's (Non Drag Radials) and an aftermarket airbox. (and Andy exhaust bypass)
went 12.44@115
I never had an f-body come close to my basically stock times.
BTW the car in question was a 99 hardtop vette. times were ran in Bowling Green.
the Z06's are fast as heck......... if you know how to drive, I've walked a few but after test driving one I know that the driver's must suck, I put that thing through the ringer and its very impressive, I think without my n2o the Z06 would be faster, but as far as modding to beat them, you could spend $600 on n2o, or about $2500 for heads, cam, headers package, not including computer tuneing and converter or clutch, but your still stuck with the shitty 10bolt, so thats another 2500 - 3k........ BUT... you could beat them w/ just a cutout if they arent very skilled drivers, and that would def. make them feel stupid.....
what about..
C5 auto (STOCK) vs WS-6 M6 (LID, cutout)???
who would win..if the drivers were equally the same?
from a dig and roll.. around 55mph.
i need to know..cuz im racing one..this weekend..
