Fav vid of a C5 Z laying the smack down on exotics, these things are stupid fast with bolt-ons.

Races start around 1:38

Not sure if I've ever seen Zyborg ever lose a race. His Z might honestly be the LS6 touched by the hand of God. I bet he could even outrun me somehow.

Nice runs, car seems to still be kicking plenty of ***.

so your saying they fly over looking for any new car that may have a warranty and report back to every Manufacture in hopes that the person might come back with a warranty claim if something breaks?
thats ridiculous, I guess I can see them on forums but flying over all the tracks give me a break

not saying that they do. saying that it is possible, plausible, and feasible.

do you know how much money they would save if they found a way to weed out all of the racing(abuse in their eyes) related warranty claims?

and considering a local pd used a drone out in the midwest somewhere to end a standoff, i wouldn't be too shocked if they also started using these over known street racing areas.

WHYTRYZ28...nice video, enjoyed that a lot, not sure who the driver was, but he seemed happy...i love all Z06's..so that for me was great...though i don't him doing that to any newer exotics like a AVENTADOR...

MR.DAVID...no i do not recall ZYBORG losing either, but the way he drives and the way his car runs hahaha i guess not...cars are a big part of winning as is the driver mod, which ZYBORG has both...and as far as fly over's are concerned, well hell i guess anything is possible...i experienced 911, nothing surprise's me anymore...

lol, thanks man But there is no chance in hell that it would ever go down like that. I want what you have my friend.

and of course I do loose every once in a while, I got some of my loses on vid... all you got to do is check out all the vids in my channel right below my sig.

and again of course I loose every now and then, when I race I try to put everything to work and not just rely on the power that the car makes.

You just need a cam and a 100 shot. It takes a hell of a car to outrun a cammed 100 shot Z06.

Not to mention the C5Z has pretty nice gearing. I have to get 3.90s to match them.
