Im sorta shocked at this. All the dynos we seen pointed that the C6 was basicly the same as a z06.

Can anyone explain this?

Awsome. I can't believe the C6 beat the Z off the line.

Of Note, I have raced in that exact spot. ATXCLS and I raced at the last Houston Meet .
Blades told us of it, as he used to live there.

The Z is a little bit lighter, and has more aggressive tranny ratio.


About the Z loosing from a DIG, thats all driver. The guy driving a Z is on the zo6vette board and he said he cant launch for shit. Never been to track and rarely races on the street. The race was a friendly race between 2 members.

Even the manual c6's all seem to be stuck in the high 12s some in the mid 12s. Trapping a good 4-5 mile per hour less than a ZO6. ZO6s run low 12s high 11s in stock form. Again these numbers are all with a good driver.

Ha, yup we did! Unfortunatley, I couldn't launch worth sh!t that night, so I got spanked by the Chops . . . . . . twice. But, I had a chance to run an old school eclipse that had V-Tech in it, stok from the factory. Funny, I thought that that was a honda invention. Needless to say, I didn't run him.

But, we did see a race between a modded busa and a heavely modded Z28. The chevy had about a hundred foot advantage, and still lost to the bike. What was even cooler was the fact that the biker was a chic!!
