As I left the local hot rod gathering last Saturday morning, I noticed a new silver Z06 fall into line behind us. I tried to get him to go but he was just hanging back and after a mile or so he fell back several hundred yards. As we approached the highway he was rapidly gaining on us and we all made the green light. He pulled beside me at about 20mph and we were off..............Hot damn, running a Z06 with witnesses. Smile

I pulled ahead in first gear and slammed second. I could hear him but I couldn't see him. :LOL: At the end of second gear I could see him in the rearview mirror. I had a good shift into third and at the end of third gear he was a little further back. At the end of 4th gear (125mph) I had him by 3 or 4 lengths and he was still on it so I gave it a little in 5th before shutting down around 135.

Down the highway a few miles I ended up next to a Mustang Cobra with lots of modifications. I thought he wanted to go but when I looked up as we were side by side he was giving me a major thumbs up. It turns out he saw me off the Z06 and didn't want to play. Confused

I've never been to the quarter mile track with this car but with runs like this I suspect it is deep into the 11s. This was my second C6 Z06. Laughing Both of them lost by 3+ car lengths.

The best part is at the light following the race he wanted to know what kind of car I was driving. Shocked

I've been out looking for them but they're really hard to find. Figures as soon as I get my car back I can't find any really fast cars to race.

that's really cool, my goal for streetlight action was beating C5 Z06 but this thread makes that sound like childs play...

I'm still waiting on a few more parts before I do my install.

He has only the craziest supercharged S on the West Coast, if not the whole US.

indeed he does, I think there are def. faster s2000's out there. if im not mistaking he's putting down an impressive 234rwhp.....X2.... thats pretty damn impressive, thats far more then double the stock car output. His car has been featured in magazines and is well known, in person it just looks like a clean s2000, nothing too flashy.....but the wise know better.
