What's funny is a not even full bolt C5Z is in the 10.80's now at 126MPH I think..I posted it awhile back

here it is, he has done better since then
Gary's C5 ZO6 Yellow @ Atco Raceway - Video
That is my buddy's car who I helped setup with mods/tires, etc..
He race with me and my friends; Anger Management Racing.
He's an excellent driver. Him and I basically planned out what we wanted to achieve with just minimal boltons and our crew made it happen.
I believe we can eek out a high 10.6x with all the bolt-ons in great air but it will be a challenge.
He has also helped me achieve my goals with my car by being meticulous with all the details.

As for the C6Z platfoms, it's a more of a road race vehicle than the C5Z and more expensive so the right people haven't taking the effort into converting it to more of a drag car. With the right crew,driver, and mods it's a beast. Maybe nines witm cam/headers and bolt ons.
Some guys are making 550+ with those mods, it's light and a freakin 427 with Ti connecting rods/valvetrain,etc.
