I said alittle, the guy that I raced had an 01 then sold it for and 02 and pulled .3 or .4 better in the 1/4 with the 02z. You z seem to be putting down more then the average 01 (props) thats more like what 02+ put down. My buddys 01 put down 348 or some **** like that.

My 01 Z weighed 3000 #'s even. This was with 1/8th tank of gas IIRC and no driver using the TexasMotorPlex scale in Ennis, Tx.

In 2002, the z06 weighed a little more when they added a couple of safety stuff to the car. I think it was the doors and roof that got more reinforcements, but I'm not sure on how much it weighed.

It would be a close race. Good info here, but is this thread ever going to get locked since there is a sticky?
