Not understanding the playing around on 17lbs. Most cars on pump gas are in that range. Just did a few runs today on 28 and all the FI cars were a minimum of 17 lbs.

I would submit that there are almost no C6Z's running over 140 mph with "just bolt ons".
That's about as disingenuous as stating that C6Z's are 10-second cars.

I'm going to assume that your comments were directed at me, and that you seem to have an issue with C6 Z06's going into the 10's.

How many car's have to run into the 10's before that "banner" can be flown, in your opinion ? :pop:

I know bolts on's can go 10's because my buddy's car is proof (10.8) with heads/cam full exhaust but only at 132 and he can drive. What other "bolt on's" does that Canadian car have to do 140mph?

If this board allows it, I would post a link to his thread.
Hope this doesn't break any rules here....

The other 9 second bolt-on cars have some form of weight reductions, IIRC.
These other car's are in fact running at a track rental at MIR this month.
Gary2004Z06 went 9's without any internal mod's, ie, cam ....

And, another stock 2009 C6 Z06 just went 10's on a drag radial, so the disingenuos 10 second club has expanded further :D

Back to the original topic .

Heads, cam, intake, throttle body, and a Tad bit of port work or extrude honing. My 08 Z made 605 at the rear wheels. Some say it was a freak but walked many a car before 125 if they could even get out front. Did run 10.9s with it with filter, DRs and exhaust. Still had factory tune in it

It's directed at anybody who buys into the nonsense thrown around by the C6Z crowd that they are 10-second cars.
One. Exactly one car has gone 10's bone stock on stock tires. And it did it at MIR in mineshaft air, pushed to the line and ran ice cold on a track that was prepped like crazy. And that was...what...three years ago?
***EDIT***It was FIVE years ago, lol.

Perhaps you can document a number of other cars that have supposedly ran 10's bone stock on stock tires.

Whats your hangup about drag radials ? :pop:

I guess you have your opinion.......I have my 10 second slips.
And, that's the only slip that matters, I ran the number as the driver.

I don't have a hangup about drag radials. I have a hangup about ridiculous and unrealistic claims.

And I'm glad you have some 10-second slips. :sleeping: I got half-a-dozen of them yesterday and have a stack of 9-second slips.
:D

Call them whatever you want....you're entitled to your opinion.
Glad to hear you ran 10's and 9's in your stock GT500 on drag radials.....

Congratulations dude, you're my hero.
I'm glad we have guys like you trolling here to defend the honor of the almighty Z06. I still remember you trolling my track times thread defending C6Z's that were slower same track, same day as my GT500. Bring them out now, I'm over 1/2 a second faster and still going.
:lol:

I love how you now resort to dropping the trolling card.

PM me on this other thread you speak of so this thread doesn't get filled with your pissing match antics.

It's my observation. I've seen you in a number of threads not only defending or attempting to educate people about C6Z's, but to tell us about your own car.
Hey...that's fantastic and all and no offense, but a lot of us just don't care. :D

You apparently care.
You make up some b.s. story that I'm trolling YOUR threads, then you get pissy when I comment on a thread that's about a C6 Z06/GT500 comparison :whine:
I have civil and respectful converstions with other car nuts on this board, and naturally use my experience to back up my comments......I'm not a bench racer. Nuff said

No offense taken, but try this approach out.......... if you don't care about the C6 Z06 threads that other members of this board have started (not me) that have interest in the comparisons, stop reading and POSTING in them :beer:
