I am confused as to why they would hate me??? And my car is no longer stock so that is not achievable.

Thanks for the props.
I've been wanting to race a Z06 for a while so jumped at the chance but def aware of their potential.
Seems they run close to 130ish w/ just a CAI, tune and drag radials = could be trouble for me

My ride has shed some weight recently and now run 4.10's and 27" tires.
I think it might be closer to running high 10.80's/10.90's @ 125/126mph but need to get to the track.
*My 11.14 run had a 1.68 60ft and was using giant 28" M&H 325/45 tires (killed my gear).
***and for the record, my car does NOT put down 500+rwhp but does have a broad *** torque curve!

The last guy that said he ran faster and had video proof was lambasted so bad I haven't seen him post anywhere since then. They wanted to meet him at the track and tear down his car to see if it really was stock. I don't know if the guy was telling the truth or not but I thought what was said was a bit excessive. They are kind of crazy about that little number they have with a stock car IMO.

Nice kill, OP. Those C6 Z's are awesome but much less impressive down low than on the highway, especially with a mediocre driver. Not that they're not fast as hell, just not as crazy down low from the wrong roll.

45mph in 2nd gear is a tough roll for a c6 Z06 especially against your car with 4:10's.

good kill!

Thumbs up

Excellent kill!

Don't let people talk junk to you. The average owner/driver of a C6Z takes a LONG time just to break out of the 12's

You and your car whupped him and that's the end of it
