The driver of THAT Z06 chimed in that deleted thread that I was taking about, and he said that after the races he went to the shop and had the car checked and had spark plugs melted along with some other issues with the car. Him and the Viper (in the video you posed) are friends.

Where in the bay area did you run your cars to 150ish. I need a good spot like that to open up my car, or did you guys just throw caution to the wind?

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/2...-In_163144.htm

After this race, there was much contraversy from the 08 Viper boys, stating that there is now way, no how this can happen. So, one of the guys on there with an 08 Viper called out a C6 Z06. Lucky for him, there was an owner with a Z06 in the area that accepted the challenge. After 12 pages of bickering back and forth, they finally went out and raced this week. GUESS WHAT??? THE Z06 WON AGAIN AND THE VIPER OWNER COULD NOT BELIEVE IT!!! The Z06 had a cai/tune (470 rwhp), and the Viper had muffler delete (~ 530 rwhp)

They posted the results and video on the CF a few days ago but it got deleted because street racing is not allowed on there. I HAVE ASKED THE Z06 OWNER TO SEND ME THE VIDEO again VIA PM. ONCE HE DOES, I WILL POST IT FOR YOUR VIEWING PLEASURES!!!!

C6 Z06 > 08 Viper, even with 60 less rwhp!!!

Z06 FTMFW!!!!


Hey man sorry to burst your bubble...But when my SRT10 Viper was 475 rwhp and my buddies C6Z06 was 455 rwhp I was able to beat him 2 outta 3 times, and yes their were videos made......The point is that it's all driver dependent....When your talking about 400 PLUS rwhp cars the driver is everything


I ccan show you videos of modded C6Z06's getting pulled by stock 08 Vipers...I can show you links were the 2003 stle SRT10 was faster than the C6Z06 vette in head to head test....

Their are so many factors when it comes to street racing....But one thing you CAN be sure of is this...If you read TEN differant reviews and each review says the 2008 Viper is 1-3 tenths and 1-3 mph faster than the C6Z06 in head to head testing, then you can be sure that the 08 Viper is a lil faster... Everything else is just ACHOTS unless it's your car/money/respect on the line

Hey Dude.. sorry to burst your bubble too.. but I still got my Z06 and it runs fine.

The 2 out of 3 was from a dig. I admit that I am a bad driver from a dig.. but from a roll.. I don't think you'd get me. But.. We may never find out on that one.. LOL

No need for a pissing contest, guys. Both cars are awesome, and I think it's cool that they lined up and raced with a friendly attitude.

Wow talk about bringing a post back from the dead!!
Anyway me and this guy are still friends, and he beats me from a roll now by 1 1/2 cars everytime. We're still both stock. But I can beat him on a road course everytime. And I beat him from a dig too! That damn Viper is hard to launch with all that Torque!!

Ok, so now after the Viper owner has learned to drive his car, he beats you by 1.5 cars. Sounds ligit. Also confirms that a intake/tuned Z06 will run even with or beat a stock 08 Viper, just like the story I told in my #40 post.

NICE!!

RSKY, did Killemall EVER beat you from a roll with his 475 rwhp, where driver skill is NOT involved and only the faster car is taken into consideration???

He hasn't beaten me from a roll. Even in that vid I posted a long time ago, I started half a car behind and ended up pulling out ahead at about 155 mph.

link to vid.
