WOW!!!! there is WAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY too much z06 FEAR in here....

stall, cam, and bolt ons have been more then enough to send fbodys into mid 11's consistanly(and radical cams have seen 10's)

i have no hard time believeing he handed a stock z06 its **** from a dig... no hard time at all...
now from a roll 50+ forget about it

LOL... fantastic response. Everytime I see this guy I laugh me *** off

Anyway, mags are notorious for getting times all over the board. Some are too fast for most people to duplicate... some, my grandma can duplicate (usualy mags like car and driver, motor tred, and road and track fall more into this category)... they really shouldn't be used to do anything but ball-park... ball-park like within a second

Definitely go from a dig, the Z06 is no joke from a roll..I am a little biased

Ever notice which ever company has ads in the mag seems to get a better rating, or fudged to not look as bad. They got an Fing 2002 35th anv. SS 5.5 0-60 and like a 13.7 in the quarter. Realisticly..........uh more like a 4.8-5.2 0-60, and a 12.9-13.4 in the quarter. These are times regular people can produce pretty easy. :yup:

Oh, not to mention they got a mustang GT to go up against the SS and made the SS look bad as hell, and perfected the GT all to hell. Posting some of the most extreme numbers I have ever seen a GT make........5.8 0-60 13.9 1/4 ?!?!?! In a car that makes little over 230 to the wheels, it was real close to the 320+rwhp SS that weighs 200 some odd pounds heavier, and is more aero dynamic.


**** a GT traps in the F***ING 90s!!!! Not like the SS at 107+stock.

The smae can be said for the Z06, I have seen ones go in the 11s, but never anything higher than 12.4. :haha: That is a joke, they put over 360 to the wheels, and weigh around 3000lbs. They are nasy biotchs!!!

FACT!!!!!!!

Velocity

Z06s on average are more like 350 at the wheels... but I am not gonna put up much of a fight over 10 HP.

I USED to go to the track alot and have seen a couple z06's but ive never seen them go into the 11's (stock).

gimme a break, im just getting into these types of cars


EDIT: could it be the shitty humidity down here in south florida?

My mistake, I was going off of the top of my head.

Velocity

Not many do hit 11s stock... I have never seen that happen either.

My first instinct is to trust people when they say they ran this or that on a forum. If they have to lie on an internet forum to feel good about their **** size, then that is their own problem...

I do know that there are at least a few members on z06vette.com that claim super high 11s on a completely stock setup. Take it for what it is worth.

And yes... humidity would make a huge difference.

Well, they are ~500pounds lighter than an f-body. Don't forget about that. The Z06 weighed in at 3060 with about 1/4 of a tank. So, you have to make up about 50hp in addition to the 10hp you were talking about.

Velocity

Huh? That doesn't have anything to do with what I was saying...

minivette

I didn't read the whole thread, so I see where I made a mistake. I read your post and misinterpreted what you were saying.

But for everyone else, don't forget about the weight of the Z06, it'll get ya.

Big Jimbo

Comparing the Z06 to a regular C-5, isnt the glass on the Z06 lighter also?










edit: yes, i do realize we arent talking about regular C-5's.

Yes, the glass is slightly thinner on the Z06.
