Exclamation C6 Z06 441ci VS 2013 Shelby GT500

z06 was running like sh*t. had issues with the tune, running lean and over all not ready to race. but it was a friendly race so I didn't care (stupid good thing I didn't fu*k it up!)

1st run: 50mph both cars in 2nd (of course bad roll for me) no power shifting in the Z06.

2nd run: 60mph both in 2nd and again no power shifting in the Z06 because I really didn't care (and honestly thought I will beat it by more)

we will have a rematch after I fix my issues.

the smoke in the 2nd run is most likely oil on my headers from the catch can.

enjoy!!

Some good runs. Even with issues. Any idea on mods on GT500? It has to be least bolt ons in the 700whp range. At work I have no sound to here how they sound.

What are the mods on the GT500?... sounded stock. If so... you NEED a tune asap. Unless your car is literally a stock z06 with a 440ci bottom end lol. But i doubt that. Good race though. The close ones are the good ones.

It is always wise to race when having issues. What's the worst that can happen, anyway?

Sorry forgot to include more details. My car has a little different setup than my signature. dropped compression and changed the heads/cam. it makes about 570whp/550wtq. Tune was F***** up. not sure if its clear in the vid but AFRs in the 13.3 range (and yes I kept going, I cant believe that TWICE!!) I was pissed earlier in the day. I was seeing 4* knock! and still didn't do anything about it. I am just glad the car is ok. we did a compression test and it turned out good on all cylinders.

GT500 is all stock. just lowered, and tires. 13-14psi, 590-600whp, but is running rich.

this is at high elevation (6000+ft) so that's why N/A cars suck here. of course I wasn't spraying.

I know. I was mad at another thing that happened earlier in the same day and just wasn't thinking right. I thought I damaged my engine on that 2nd race (you can see akk the smoke coming from the engine bay) that was scary. couldn't sleep that night..............

As i suspected... GT500 sounded stock. Get your car to the dyno/tuner...make sure its still making power.

13.3 isn't so lean that you would hurt anything imo

The new GT500 just surprises the crap out of me! Thinking that a new one would be a good addition one day!
