Very impressive runs.....Your car runs excellent....
What are people doing to get Lambo's... I am seeing more and more popping up here and there.... I am doing something wrong....

prices on the first gen gallardo's have plummeted. Since the new hurracion model was revealed the now 2 generations old gallardo prices have fallen dramatically. I have customers that have picked them up for the same price as new GT500's.
Perfect scenario vs perfect scenario it prob would. They both will be in the mid 500rwhp area with the vetted advantage being aero and weight. (C5 Z06s can get down into the 3000-3200lb area easily.
Am I the only one who noticed a hatch on the vette? Or was I seeing shit?
Yup, stock weight is 3060lbs so they can get down to under 3000lbs with some weight reduction.
It's a regular c5 not a z06, I noticed it too.
Good runs OP, fast 5.0 for sure
Its not so much the entry price to buy the car... its being able to afford the maintenance, and upkeep on a car like that. NOTHING is cheap on those things.
good race OP, keep them coming
i think your friend got scammed thats a base model C5 not a Z06 :beer:
it would be nice to see a race where a driving is going to be alot less of a factor, I think a roll race at fair speed for both would be a good test to which is a faster car
GM listed curb weight on C5 models
Coupe: 3246
Z06: 3118
"get down 3000lb some weight reduction " you make make it sound like its so simple hahaha, there isnt much to weight you can take off on the vette, unless you really want to strip the hell out of the cars interior, safety equipment, ride with one seat and get rid of luxury feature, even then its still hard
my Z06 is at 3220 lb with 1/4 tank of gas and all the bottles filled up ;-)

Looked like you were about to get freight trained!!!!
My brothers c5 z06 came with a Chevrolet corvette brochure that listed the weight of 04' z06 at 3060lbs. Maybe the 04's are lighter? I know they come with lighter hoods then the previous years.
Nice rolling start, and he was clearly pulling you up top....
Looks like you didn't read the thread!!!!
trust me on this. I own a wheel shop and see it every day. NOBODY thinks about that until it's too late. I see people pick up decade old M series BMW's and AMG Mercedes for pennies on the dollar all day. I can't tell you how many people I've told that their benz is 5k miles over their X service and they reply that it's like 3 grand to do it so they are just not going to do it. :lol1:
I just saw it. Right at :56 seconds. OP I think your friend may have been scammed because chevy never made a C5 Z06 with a hatch.
