People have to understand that a properly setup car with 200rwhp less
can absolutely beat a car that isn't setup right.
I've seen cars with 360rwhp run 10.90's...and in the same token...I've seen cars
with 800rwhp run 11.50's.

Keep up the good work Nick.

You may have missed my post where I finally ran into another one and put a few cars on him. 50-150 mph. Nick doesn't seem interested in running my race so whatever. Challange was made 50-150 and he declined.
Now that someone finally posted that the kb z only made 500 rwhp it helps the story out a lot. c5 z's are set up very well for roll racing. Shorter 1,2,3 5th and 6th gear make the car accelerate like it has 3.90's so 500 rwhp may not be enough to over come the instant power of a 100 shot that most likely gives you more then 100 extra ponies at the rear wheel. What kit are you using ??

Frankly, 500 rwhp is pretty sad for a blown z06.
I've seen P1's throw down 575-590 rwhp with a boost-a-pump.

I would have to agree. That's why until someone posted it made 500 rwhp I just assumed it made around 600 rwhp like most of them do. Does the guy have a stock ls6 with the k/b and no supporting mods ?? What's the deal on the low power ?

I believe his car rolls hard but I don't see it rolling much harder then my boys 435 or 450 rwhp h/c N/a car with 4.10's (M6) and I beat him rolling from 50. That's why I was fishing to see if he'd admit he's got more then a 100 shot. I have to admit you are getting a lot more success with what you are running then most would. Congrats on that. I'd still like to do a race but how about 40-115 then to compromise ??

Lol, I think most guys are missing the fact that BS is being called on beating a (600hp Vette) which it obviously isnt. A Built Z06 with a KB running decent boost would destroy a bolt on LS1 on 100 shot. Also regarding the vid, vs the C6Z is it just me but the C6Z pulled the Camaro pretty freakin hard. Of course the SS will get the jump with an instant 100 hp, but once moving it got ugly quick.
Im not knocking the SS its quick for what it has, and I'll be the first to say it on the street anything can happen. But now since the #'s are out there (should have been mentioned right from the start IMO) it makes it alot easier to believe.
Nice runs

Was the R6 from the mid 90s or something?...looked like an old POS.
I do want an LS7...haller!

Nicks car may have what he thins to be a 100shot but I bet on the dyno it will show up to be more like a 200shot. Btw Nick you said your full bolt-on m6 LS1 car trapped 90mph which is believable. So how in the hell can your intake/exhaust a4 LS1 car trap 92mph+? Im still calling bs on that one.

You guys are still going on about this? Who cares!!! Everyone on this board should know a intake/exhaust A4 LS1 isn't going to run 92+mph in the 1/8th. If he is going to BS about that then what would make you believe he is telling the truth about what pills are in?
