it is all relative, if u make 150k a year you would prolly be driving a c6 zo6 then a ls1 fbody that can be purchased for 7 or 8k nowdays.

This is a stupid thread. A 400Rwhp f-body *could* beat a stock C6 Zo6 in the quarter. It all depends on the 60'. The Zo6 is going to trap much higher than the f-body. If you had a stalled f-body with nice tires, i think the f-body would win. (Assuming the Zo6 had stock tires and a 2.2 60'. Although, if the Zo6 has good tires and hooks up, lets say a 1.8 60' or so, the f-body has no chance.
No matter what conditions, with only 400Rwhp, the Zo6 will 0wn an f-body with a 1.8 60'...(unless of course he misses every gear after that, lol)
The bottom line, is that the Zo6 would need poor traction and the f-body superior traction. From a roll, you wouldn't even be able to tell they were racing, because the Zo6 would be pulling so hard, lol.

So its pretty much been settled, NO!, a 400 rwhp F-body can't beat a stock C6 ZO6
Hell my car is lighter and has a over 70 more rwhp and 40-50 more rwtq then the F-bod being discussed and still couldn't outrun the MF'r, and I have been to 200 mph on 3 times. Maybe on a 150 to 200 topspeed race. LOL that will never happen.

Let me shed some light here since I have a C6 Z06.
I have raced 500-525 rwhp LS1's (A4 & M6), 470+ rwhp C5s (FRC & Z06), 520+ rwhp 350Zs, etc., etc. and I have yet to lose a race.
From a dig, my FIRST time out ever with this car, on my FIRST pass, in 85* heat with lots of wheel hop in 1st and major granny shifting, the car went 11.69@121. The trap speed was so low becasue of the heat and not shifthing into 4th, which most peopel do. In cooler conditions, without wheel hop, and speed shifthing, this is EASILY an 11.4x sec car on the stock tires in bone stock trim.
So, can a 400 rwhp LS1 beat a C6 Z06 in the 1/4? It will all depend on what the 400 rwhp has done otherwise. If it is gutted, 4.10+ gears, slicks, A4, big ol stall, suspension work, etc..then yes, it probably can and will.
jmo..

The car is fast as ***** off the showroom and you take it to the Nurburgring and it places in the top three in the elite company of $200,000+ exotic sports car. Wow!
It sure is a turd of a Vette.

Exactly.

Exactly.
CC the fastest documented time so far for a stock down to the tires c6 z06 has been made by a forum member by the name of Ranger. 11.31 @ 127.5x mph. From what I read in the posts he talks about how the torque management makes it a real bitch to launch the thing. He was sporting 1.9x 60' times. That run was even recored in Postive Elevation (DA was 300 feet IIRC),

This guy thinks so...

Didn't go through the entire post but....now way will the Z28 beat one. The Z06 driver would have to be a real dipshit to let it happen.
NO WAY.

Very nice. (0wned)
I don't see why people think it's so crazy that an f-body can run 11's with 400Rwhp...Just because an f-body can beat a c6 Zo6 with 400Rwhp, doesn't mean the f-body is actually a *faster* car. Like i said earlier, it depends on that 60'. It's a 1/4 mile race. It's not like they are going from a roll, or to 160mph...
