Well, maybe in the slightly modified class. But when I beat that Z-06 on my second run with a 12.729 TOW was smiling. Now I just need to get that bottle warmer on so I can run some juice again. I think I can get into the low 12's maybe even 11's if I get some slicks.

Are we talking about the new 427 (7 litre) $70k Corvette that is reported to be the new performance bargin of the year?

I don't know what he paid for it since I didn't talk to him. It looked new and had a Z-06 badge on the left fender that was facing me, the car was a beautiful shade of blue. I waited for him to come up and pick up his time slip but he dissappeared and I was in a hurry to go do another run.

I'm not so sure I would label it an ass kickin'. More of a love-tap:biggrin: .

Not to shabby considering mods between the cars. -F-22 Raptor -BBBs, 80mm MAF, Chip, Catless Y, Cat back?? Weight reduction(Mike probably did'nt eat anything all day to give himself that extra edge:laugh_ti: ).

-Dooleyville StageII -SS CAI, 75mm MAF, stock style catless Y, FM 40s, 24lbs of crap in the trunk and all my seats.

I'll getcha next time Mike:cool:

I don't know much about the new Z06 version that came out last year, but my understanding is that the newest Z06 model (2007 and maybe the 2006) are all the $70k plus 427 cubic inch models rated at 505 hp. The previous Z06 Vettes had the 405 hp engines at about 6.0 litres. Someone here correct me if I am wrong on this because my Vette knowledge is pretty limited. There is a new blue $70k Vette here in little old Willcox that has been tearing up the streets. The owner is a fairly young woman that is pretty out of control with the car from what I witnessed one day. Nice looking car and one that I would love to have if I had that kind of money to spend on a car, but I am not going into debit or selling a bunch of stuff to get one. Glad to hear everyone is having fun at these races. I might want to watch someday.

You guys all talking times got me looking at mine. My fastest time in my sho is 15.216 at 93.459 with a 2.480 60'. Only power adder on that thing was an SS CAI minus the hacked exhaust. I had a front seat too Mike. :)

Nick that's a very impressive trap speed.

I don't know which Z06 Tom raced. If you've never seen any videos of the brand new C6 Z06's racing, I'd highly reccomend it! www.streetfire.net probably has some. Those things are beasts! :dribble:

The Vette Tom raced was a C5 Z06, not a C6. Still, not a shabby accomplishment at all! :hail:
