that's not much better then my 05 c6 with headers and a tune. nor much better then the base stingray. they really need to fix the weak ass tune in these quick.

Or maybe it's terrible driving. A 2.1 60' is pretty bad.

 

[79vette]

mph through the traps doesn't lie, its down on power big time

 

[79vette]

then again listening closely to the vid, it sounds like the motor doesn't even get above 5000 rpm more like 4500 rpm, so I might retract my statement.

"That's my Z in that video. First time at the track in this car. They recorded my 2nd run when I shifted into 5th instead of 3rd. Definitely need more practice as I am not a professional racer. It's funny how people like to use whatever they can to rag on this car. All the haters can suck a nut.
Here are my only three runs of the night."

Mid 11's @ 125 isnt too awful I guess. Certainly expected a higher trap though.

The guy clearly can't shift either. I wouldn't use this car as an example of what the car can do

Did we watch different videos? This one went 11.77 @ 120 mph. 120 is very weak in my opinion. I have a feeling we will see a lot better times out of that car, in Stock from, with another driver and so on.

You should read my whole post and look at his other slips..

He's only doing 42mph at the 1/8th on the 11.5 pass. Car has a lot more in it than this guy can handle

or maybe the track's timing/speed is fucked?

Ah, I saw your post but not the quoted part. I was on tapatalk before.

No way he is only doing 42 mph at the 1/8th. Or more accurately, he isn't picking up 80+ mph between the 1/8th and 1/4.

Thats a timing error. No way that car is backhalfing an additional 80+mph

In b4 that ranger guy runs a low 10 pass bone stock at -10,000 DA

 

[1quick]

If a mustang traps 114 stock this car is not right

 

[79vette]

I think he was shifting way to soon in the vid, plus he shifted 2 to 5th gear so that explains a lot. definitely driver error. I predict a A8 Z06 will be well in the 10's stock.

 

[syP]

I've NEVER seen a zr1 break into the 12s in person. Most of these guys can't drive a stick. Give it time... These will crack a 11.0 bone stock with a good driver. BET

TCG Investigators have come to the rescue ... I would hope it goes faster then what I have seen...

 

[79vette]

125 mph trap is definitely 10 sec zone. letting it rev in its power band will net better trap speed. 135 mph trap is high 9 sec zone, fyi. I bet if he lets is stay in the 6500 rpm range for shifting like the A8 should do in performance mode, it will see 130 mph traps.

 

[Flyn]

You can't base numbers on one car/driver/night. Wait until several guys take a Z06 through the quarter and then judge.

this.

gm should probably be giving him one soon to flip the internet bashing on this car
