Serious rubber for sure. I don't get worried about my own safety, but for the well being of my wallet

IMO a well setup C5 Z06 like that would have no problem with a Mach 1 with a ported shortblock, head work, and a T76 turbo. I believe the kill but I think you might have beat the driver. All these badass cars and yours is badass too, yet there is never any videos? Weird.. Good kill though.

I don't let people ride with me while I race... So it is hard for me to video while driving. Plus the other people that do get the runs on video don't ever give me copies of them. lol

A guy I know had a similar setup to Dan's car. It ran 9.50 @ 143mph.
I've had plenty of races and there are none on video. Who in their right
mind would record themselves participating in some illegal activities then
post it on the internet? Posting evidence doesn't make much sense to me.

i think this is it right here, what stopsign said. with the setup on that vette i think it SHOULD have won, but didn't, and its been said many times before anything can happen on the street. for instance a damn corolla S whooped my magna-charged suburban that ran 13's. shouldn't have happened but it did, and i got laughed at for a long time. but come on nemesis, do you really need to start junk. i doubt he come on here to post a lie. he was just excited about whippin a badass vette.

Yup I have no reason to lie about anything. The way it came out is just that. But I don't think I'll be racing anyone for a little while. I went to the track tonight and I guess I had my clutch cable set wrong and the 28x10.5 et Drags hooked and my clutch went up in smoke... lol So I'm going to need a new clutch disc before I go Vette hunting again. Till next time... hahahaha

Are you incapable of understanding the difference?

...and I find it ironic that you think you're going to tell me about this forum.

Who are you anyway? Let me guess...you're one of those guys that thinks a 700rwhp Corvette is a missile right?
I know my **** is slow. You don't know that yours is too apparently.

I'm really surprised that you guys (regulars) have a hard time believing Dan. I've driven quite a few 650rwhp Corvettes and I'm well aware of
what a Mach 1 with a 76mm turbo can do. I'm not surprised at all by
the outcome.

I'm just curious what you're basing your opinion on?

Nice kill OP. Too many variables on high HP street races to doubt your credibility. Doesn't sound unbelievable to me. Fix that clutch and continue the hunt.

I don't know Dan like you obviously know him. I don't doubt his car is fast. Just from reading this thread, knowing about what both cars are capable of I feel he came across a worse driver than himself. Now even though I don't know Dan I get the hint that he isn't a bad driver at all. HOWEVER given a driver of equal skills as him was in the Z06 I think the outcome would have been much different. If you don't agree with me, then that is cool. No hard feelings at all. The fact that there is never a video of his car or the cars he races just makes my opinion more of that. You ask what I am basing my opinion on...my answer is not alot at all! Since there is no proof besides a bunch of words. Give me numbers or a video and I will give you a better opinion I bet.
