from a 45-110 roll, i was by at most a car length behind.
You probably raced a C5 Vette which would make sense... since they only have like 350hp. There is no way in hell you kept up with a C6 Z06 (as in the LS7). That's a 150whp difference, and maybe a 150lbs difference. You would get stomped. If you think you have run with a C6 Z06... I can arrange another meeting for you to get your **** packed in, if you would like.

Yeah for real, the Z06 is crazy fast, it walks all over the Viper in a heart beat. My local dealer had one sitting inside for a while and they were gonna let me test drive it,..... that would have been pretty damn awesome..... but I didn't have $40,000 as a deposit to take it for a ride.

I've driven alot of more basic sports cars like a normal Corvette, Z28, Trans Am, 911, Boxter, 300C SRT8, Charger RT, etc, bu never driven a real SUPER sports car.. Overall though, I'd have to say that I love those few huge cars with incredible power.. 300C, 300C SRT 8, Charger RT, Charger SRT 8.. But a really fun car is the newish Jaguar S Type R. Supercharged V8. I think it may have Brembo brakes and BBS wheels too.. Really neat car to drive..

My 302whp can beat stockish Z06's, annihilate stock/modified SRT4s, EVO's, STi's.

The fact that 90% of our torque is given at low rpm's is..great.
HAHAHA.... I'm calling you out on that 302whp. Post a dyno sheet.

x2 my dad had a blue 06 vette before he traded it in for his 07 Z06 because it wasnt fast enough lol. C5 i could see happening, but sorry bro not the Z06. Im still begging for you to prove me wrong on this one.
