Re: MT runs the c6 Z06

best MPH ive seen is 127, That is a 10 second MPH. Cant wait till GMHTPgets ahold of one, they seem to get the best out of a car.

Re: MT runs the c6 Z06

i still think low 11s would be the norm. we've had debates on what factory cars run all the time and it usually varies by five tenths or so. i'm not saying you couldn't break 10s with it, i'm just saying what it will definetly do.

Re: MT runs the c6 Z06

Well since the advertised power ratings came out people were saying low 11's high 10's w/ a Evan Smith or GMHTP, seems like the estimates were good ones, the trap is definately enough...and as we all know MT is the last track test you wanna judge a cars straightline performance off of. 100 more hp then the c5 z05 and the norm for those cars is mid to low 12's w/ more then a few people that have ran them to 11's stock. Remember a few folks (not naming any names) saying that this couldnt run w/ the Ford GT...believe Smith hit a 10.9 w/ ET's...From what I see so far Id say thats definately well in reach w/ some tire for the upcoming z06.

Re: MT runs the c6 Z06

well a pulley and DRs is not stock

the DRs on the GT were also slowing the car down some, as said in the article, due to the different diameter of the tire.
