Well I'm partial to the Z06 especially since many of them have pwn3d my car so that's that I'm going with.

I'd say the vette b/c less weight. I might go with the snake if it wasn't a vert. Definately a close one though.

Well just judging from the last race you have against the stock 03 Z. I might have to say that my money will be on the vette or else the vette will jump out first but you might reel him in a little. Should make for a good race. Good luck to both and watch out for the boys in black and white with the fun lights on top

I voted Vette, but after watching this again,
https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...pullied+vs+z06
I think it will be pretty damn close. Definately a driver's race. You just love finding a new C5Z to pick on dont you.

You pulled the stock Z pretty well with a 280lb driver, but I think you are just out gunned in this one if the driver is 150ish, has more seat time, and is making another 45whp.

Oh yea, and the Z needs to leave the headlights down!!!!

Cant wait. It would seem obvious to say Vette since there is only a 55rwhp difference and its a vert but hey, I say very close indeed.

The Vette will win if it has any kind of driver and a decent set of tires...if you weren't so far away I would run you in my camaro

I will have to say it will be a drivers race on this one. To close in the numbers. And tires will play a big part on the dig run. ROLL WILL BE DRIVERS RACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Runs will be from a roll and we'll stop when there's a decisive winner.
