Anything is possible with a crappy enough driver. In this case, the Z06 driver. I've beat an 8 second drag bike before because he stalled on the line. Do I brag about it? Never.

He's not even bragging about his car... he drives a Honda Civic.

I have seen bone stock Z06s run 12.50s in the 1/4 ...ain't no Subaru WRX STi stock going to run a 12 anything.

I can't wait until the 11 sec C6s come out.

Yeah...that Z06 driver had a 3.5 sec 60'

...whatever!

I know that. The point is, who cares if the Sti beat a Z06 with a crappy driver. He beat the driver not the car.

I know... I did say "whatever" ...right.

I'll be sure to post on the Dodge board when my Z beats a Hennessy Viper Venom 650-R because he smokes the tires through 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th.

like I said ...
whatever!

BTW Steve Y, 1,000+ posts in a Camaro Board? I think it's time for you to trade that Mustang in for a Z.

I will probably get the '07 Camaro if it comes out. It should have the LS2 engine in it and have 350+ rwhp stock. I definately like Camaros a lot or I would not be on this board.

I wish Chevy or anybody would sell something that stupid fast for cheap.

Thats the biggest load of SH*T I have ever heard. I beat my boss' WRX in my old 97 T/A when it was STOCK! ANd my boss is no pushover driver. OMG that guy is retarded. He saw a WRX racing and a Z06 driving normally.

Anything is possible on any given day and had I not witnessed a 98 Z28 run a 12.60@111 with stock manifolds and exhaust, I would be calling myself. However this particular car did have free mods but not even a cutout.

sounds like thats a fast track. stock LS1 M6's run in the 105-106 range here (sacramento raceway) vs. about 100-101 (sears point). both at about sea level about 2 hours away from each other. your 113's there could very well be 107-108's here at sac or 103's at sears. thats why you cant really compare two different tracks. ****, its bad enough comparing the same track on different days.

btw, if your car does really trap 113's then the 109's posted by bone stock MaCh1's and 101's by stock full weight GT 5.0's don't seem so unbelieveable.

The 109 from the Mach I I still don't believe, he is claiming that he is 3 mph faster than any other stock Mach I.
