Ask anyone of the 78 people who came to our local event at Bowling Green kentucky Saturday.
Where does a guy with one post get off calling me incredible?

I'm sorry you guys are correct. He did run a 12.11 on a 75 shot, drag radials, and his car was tuned by a shop in GA...

Pretty quick , huh? ZO6

edit: I'm pretty sure he has one of those carbon fiber air intake things, not exactly sure what they are called or what brand it is.

Anytime I see a chevy guy say bolt-ons it is all over. Have you ever been to LS1.com? Stock is anything you want it to be... Who knows what bolt-ons include. Built 502 with 200 hp shot of nitrous and a blower?

ZO6 THIS beeyotch....

I think my liscense plate sums it up nicely....

having said that, I hate chevys, but I've gotta say that the Z06 is a pretty sweet car.

I wouldn't mind driving one at all (especially that sweet blue color).

also, some of you remember, last time I dyno'd my truck there was an electron blue ProCharged Z06 there doing something like 600 Rear Wheel HP!





later,
chris

?? **** ??

You need to have a **** before you can worry about it not working ... and if I remember correctly you don't have a heart either ...

No **** - no heart - you don't stand a chance ...

That was NOT my car in the above pic. My rims are not chromed. That was Peercy's Z06. ........

It's funny how everyone is calling BS on Leonards post. I'll try to set a few things straight. There have been a "FEW" Z06s running high 11s, bone stock. Most are running in the 12.50 range. This past Saturday was my SECOND time ever to a 1/4mi track in the Z06. I ran a 12.70@114(2.2 60ft) last year with a filter and exhaust as the only mods. I figured I should drop a few tenths off my 60ft buy adding a set of 315/35 17 BFG DRs. I still spun the crap out of 'em. My best pass was a 12.11 or something like that. That was with the same filter/exhaust as last year, plus a 75 dry shot. Leonad has the time slip because I was racing him that run, so maybe he will post it. That was the first time I've ever sprayed coming off the line. I feel once I get some experience with drag racing and learn how to launch, I should be running mid to low 11s. On motor I was averaging 12.80 @ 110mph, so I was roughly 4mph and .1et off of what I was running last year. Track temp was almost 90 degrees. IMO, once Leonard gets his launch down and runs on a good track with ideal weather conditions, he will be running 10s. Of course now I know everyone will start laughing and waving the bs flag. Whatever....... And to the Corvette guys trolling over here, all i can say is I am sorry I am not as gifted or experienced at launching this car. There were several other Z06s there running and only one ran under a 12.5. So I guess I'm not the only one that sucks, huh? What's really funny is reading all of the posts on the Vette forums about guys running mid 11s/low 12s. They come to Bowling Green for a Vette function and are running almost a second slower. HHMMMM, maybe they forgot how to drive? Instead of bashing people trying to learn how to drag race, maybe some of you should try to offer some help........ I still beat a few '03 Cobras. One of them said he had every bolt-on you could do, minus a shot of N20 and the KB. He had a higher trap sped, but my et was quicker. He was running Nitto 555Rs. I guess everyone will say he really sucks also. :roll:


edit(forgot to talk a little trash): Hey Leonard, should I talk about our head to head matchup?

Err yup easterisland -- you may find this incredible but what you've suggested about the performance of the average Z06 is definitely less than credible.

And, I've got two posts on this here truck board not one.
