I hope not. I can't wait for the Z06 to come out so I can destroy a few of them.

Just kidding... 
Camaro guys are redneck retards though.

My personal opinion is that after 01-02 nothing from GM made much more hp than the stock LS1 with an LS6 intake in a TA or Z except maybe the Z06 version, the rest was marketing and hype. I personally expected more from the new Vette, but they do look nice...
Stock for stock a 2002-2004 Z06 will run 12.3 ( good driver on drag radials will run high 11's) the new C6 with a six speed and Z51 pkg. will run around a 12.6..Z06 pulls over a G on the skid pad and the C6 pulls about .93 G..close but not the same..Z06 comes in almost 200 lbs. lighter is a real street figher..not many buttons and bells...C6 is nice smooth, refined, and sneeky fast and has all the fluff...real diffferent personalities...up over 145MPH the C6 will start to pull away on the Z06..better drag coefficient and a more agressive 5th gear than the Z06...stock f body cars are not in this league..

The C-6 was never made for drag racing. The entire care was tested and tuned at Nurburgring in Germany. Idiots who think the C-6 is king of the road stop light to stop light are dead wrong. I have driven a C-6 (thought about getting rid of the hawk), and by far it is the fastest car I have driven over 100mph, better than a 911 or a viper. Plus, the C-6 is a hellovalot smoother ride. Please don't knock a vette just because it got beat by a car set-up for 1/4 mile racing. BTW, I drove the C-6 at atlanta motor speedway, and barely broke the Ice in the throttle-and it in no way lacks torque like was mentioned.
P.S. Nice kill unit!!!!

The C6 is setup for drag racing just as much as my car...actually it's much better off at the track stock suspension for stock suspension.
