**** happens and it happened in front of a large crowd of people. Spend some time at the track and you will see a lot of car going sideways in the burnout...
When something happens to your car I will make sure we lable you as the "average z06 owner, rich, and not a driver."

are you willing to bet on that
find me who touched the engine and ill give you the car.
worked over heads. lingenfelter cam,intake and TB.
full exhaust. legal exhaust btw.
all GM internals - the cam and the valve srings.
5 clutchs 3 axles and multiple (MULTIPLE) tire combos later finally found what the c6 z06 likes at the Dragstrip.
after about 1000 passes later also finally got it to dip, and stay in the 6.Xx time range!
you forgot to mention that you think its an fully built auto matic!
its the 6 speed gm built!
if you havent done the research theres plenty stock bottom end boosted 7.0 z06s making way more power.

Scott is not the typical Z06 owner/driver. He has been racing his car for some time and he has ran MANY mid 10 second 1/4 mile times all motor unlike your car with nitrous. Before you run your mouth about someone maybe you should know their back ground a little.

sorry if i offended you or him didnt mean too, **** and i spend too much time at the track, your buddy hillybilly just came down to denton sat night and took 1500 from me cause dumbass tony thorn out here redlit. an you cn go ahead and label me that cause i wrecked the z06 two yers ago in kennedale shifting into second gear(on motor) an street tires. i still going to say though unless somthing broke he PROBALY could of avoided that guardrail. but who knows. maybe someone had him aimed wrong. maybe they put too much wter. i heardthe track was shitty....and heres a pic of me getting wicked sideways on a burnout so i know what cha mean mister chad. good luck to your friend getting his car back together.

on the topic... if i hadnt stayed on the gas...adjusted my steer..then i would of gone head on into the barrier....so for the other people talking about how to avoid it...dependin gon your car setup and power....if you get sideways dont just let off the gas because then your tires are hot...STICKY..and if you didnt adjust your steer you probaly going to jump really hard into the barrier.

To give that guy credit not everyone knows the background on everyone and to do a search would be hard, as he does not know who he is at all obviously. But yes this guy has a lot of seat time. But do the typical new, rich, vette owners usually do this kinda ****, yes. Don't have to fo on blast mode bc of a comment that in most cases would be true.
I have made some close calls in my past and when dealing with car/racing Karma is a bitch. You will never hear me talk **** to someone about wrecking or blowing up a motor because one day it will come back.

Thomas did win a bunch of Change last weekend. They said the total was 10k... Tony's car flys but Hillybillys SBC is no punk. I know the rematch is going to be huge, I bet it is going to be in the 10-20k range.

Tony`s clutch fry was Nasty! Could not escape the smell , even in 20mph winds. I have seen him burn at least 6-8 over the years but that S/C Z06 annihilated those fibers!
Still would not trade that for the dude`s pain in the other lane..
I feel for him , as that sucked!

Its not a big deal, just gets old seeing all the **** talking about someone people do not know. Scott can drive very well, maybe it could have been avoided but who knows.

it was 2K then i heard they were running . so i told a buddy we put in 1500..now 3500..quickly went to more man i was there in the pit doubt it got to 10 k ppl in dallas was bettin on hillbilly too. tony runs in the eighties so it was a one i thought he had i know hill billy been in fours he was testing before the race i know he went a .13 figured it was a shoe in ******* tony went red
i lost half of my earnings from that night i won the big tire race.beat david houser and travis orr.
i hope the next race goes for that much we normally dont bet for those high numbers but im sure between all the racers and fans ..it might get that high. when tony goes down there ill be bringing checkerboard me and horace have unfinished business i couldnt get him to get in the lane next to me for nothing , also looking for gordy if you know where hes hiding dallas will be invading hmp this year probaly late summer.

are you willing to bet on that
find me who touched the engine and ill give you the car.
worked over heads. lingenfelter cam,intake and TB.
full exhaust. legal exhaust btw.
all GM internals - the cam and the valve srings.
5 clutchs 3 axles and multiple (MULTIPLE) tire combos later finally found what the c6 z06 likes at the Dragstrip.
after about 1000 passes later also finally got it to dip, and stay in the 6.Xx time range!
you forgot to mention that you think its an fully built auto matic!
its the 6 speed gm built!
if you havent done the research theres plenty stock bottom end boosted 7.0 z06s making way more power.

Sucked to see that happen to Scott, as Chad has already stated, the dude has made many 10 second passes in this car trapping mid 130's on motor, it was just a freak accident, and he JUST got a full detail/paint correction done on the car too
