Default 04' Z06 Vs. 00' ss

April 1st there is going to be a knock down, drag out, heads up race between (algws6 & shaulinmathvader) an 04' Z06 (FM 13 cam, L.G. L.T. headers, 3.90 gears, textralia clutch) & an 00' ss (T-rex cam, full bolt ons, A4 3500 stall, 4.56 gears -stock 10 bolt-)!

Whos going to end up getting spanked
Vote for your fav. or just for the hell to see who as the last

Im voting for the Z06, because it's lighter and I have always been a vette fan. Plus, i will be purchasing an 02 Z06 this month!

if the camaro will hook up he will take it to about 110 after that areodynamics will take over and the Z will start to pull, should be a tight race though.. get that **** on vid..

I'd say the vette too assuming drivers are equal. More power and lighter.

It should be a good race, I do think the Z06 shoud edge you out.

BTW, what tires are you both planning to run with?

The guy in the camaro is going to sell his car afterwards, haha. Z06 should win pretty easy.

stalled auto > 6 speed if the auto launches the **** out his car and "trees the **** out of him" . the vette might not have enough track to chase it down but never know...

If the driver of the Z06 is good at dragging his car, he should win. A Z06 is hard to finesse down the quarter without a lot of practice, so I've been told.

the camaro for sure... he is going to leave the z 06 guy scratching his head, with his mods he'd have to be a bad driver to lose that race... Oh wait thats right i FORGOT THE Z 06 IS SO HIGH AND MIGHTY THAT IT CAN NEVER BE BEAT WHOOPS MY BAD!!!!!!
dont get me wrong I love the vette but it is undermatched against these mods, and for the same amount of money you can get a lot more car with the f body.( just because of the simple fact that I spent 8 on my 98 m6 and with the next 7 thousand I will spank a new z 06 for a quarter of the price)
