Wow I had forgot about this thread it was started so long ago, but I guess after a year and the Viper being out for quite a while I guess the Z06 has held up pretty well! Since this thread has started I put my Bone Stock 06 Z06in the 10's on the run flat tires last November, a couple of tenths...

I had my windshield replaced at Saleen and they said they didn't need to take the fenders off?

That sounds awesome, great story! I have 2002 GT2 that I bought brand new and I have done the computer and exhaust and thats it and the car is fairly close in performance to my GT. 10.6 135 for my GT in the 1/4 and 10.8 at 130 mph for my GT2, so I guess the new GT2 really isn't going to be a...

I own a 2002 GT2 that I bought brand new, it only has about 4000 miles on it and is like new, in the real world the car will probably bring about 1/2 its msrp which was 200k. I believe the only way to buy a Porsche is used, they depreciate about as bad as a rental Ford Taurus and in my opinion...

I am ready for mine as well, how do we get them?

I also saw them all at Barrett Jackson and I agree they look awesome and I like their smaller size better than the new cars as well. That being said however I think the interiors need some better quality material and more detail. If you look at an ERA replica they are totally superior in every...

Maybe the car really sold for closer to 125k to Andy?

I agree! I would get a second opinion or have him run a few different tests before they start tearing my car apart.

Aren't the trickle chargers that come with the car designed to stay on the car when ever the cars parked? I was under the impression you can leave them on indefinately as they were automatic and work like any battery tender. I noticed you said 2 or 3 days?

60' is everything! I think I could of run a .50 with a 1.70 short no problem.

Tony I wasn't saying you aren't a good driver, I am sure your are! Someone doubted my runs using Joes car as a basline I suppose? Stating it only ran 10.48 with a 1000 plus hp. I guess the logic was if he couldn't do it with a 1000hp I couldn't possibly get within a tenth or 2 with only 600hp...

No 40 degrees was the outside temperature.

Thanks! But you don't mean old, you mean experienced!:biggrin

I guess my point is...... If you are a good driver you will probably like more hp and if you are just a fair driver you might not benefit from the extra ponies. I don't think I have driven a 1000 hp car but I have driven many of Jason Heffner's Twin Turbo Vipers and his Supercharged cars...

Yes and no, I do agree most of the run is in the launch but if you get a good leave and then break traction down the track your time will suffer.

Thanks Roger! Roger if you go on the Corvette C6 Forum and look up the fast list it will show all the times of the fastest Z06's. I believe this is the link:http://forums.corvetteforum.com/showthread.php?t=1794944

Here are the timeslips for the skeptic! My number is 2192 on the slips and I put my race card on top of the timeslips so you can see its my number. If you look at the slip with the 1.75 60' look at the 1/8 mile mph compared to the other slips and you will see what I meant about loosing traction...

I don't know if they are or not? They might be excellent drivers, I don't know? But you said 10.48 not 9.48 and I don't think 10.48 is a very good time for a 1000+hp 3500pound car do you?

DBK I agree about the weather making a major difference as I was on the phone to Jason in late August telling him I thought something was wrong with the car when I was running 11.1 at 130. It just wasn't making the power and I couldn't get a good leave because I was coming out harder to make up...

Must not know how to drive it that well is all I can think of? There are a lot of guys with a lot of dyno hp that can't run stock car times. I don't know if Joe drives his own car or someone else does but I saw that car do a 360 at the dragstrip on utube. I think one would have to agree that...
