Re: modded lt1 vs. c5

Next time go form a higher roll. Going from a 10mph in an M6 is like 1000 rpms. No wonder why you pulled him. Go from a 30-40 roll in 1st and i bet the outcome may be different. Good kill btw.

I got one. My wife knows more about cars than any guy I know. And no, she's not a dike

And if you find a girl who knows enough about cars to know what makes a Z06 different from a Z51, shes probably a butch anyways...

Hot girls who know alot about cars are far and few.

Re: modded lt1 vs. c5

I ran a C5 on the highway the other day, 70-120. Saw him coming up behind me, probably 80-ish. Totally informal race, but he got on it as he went by, and I pulled third gear, got even with him by 90, half a car by 100, and walked away in 4th.

We exchanged a thumbs-up afterward. He seemed cool with it.

That's all I know. I think he was completely stock, and I'm guessing A4.

I had a similar experience at the drag strip last summer -- I ran a 13.3 against a C5 M6 that ran a 13.8. I thought Vettes were supposed to have the top end advantage? I didn't think my lid and catback were enough to cover the difference, but I'm two for two.

A Z06 with H/C is a SOLID LOW 11 sec. car and I really like 'em.
A z06 with just a cam is a solid low 11 second car.

Top end advantage? Same motor. Ergonomics may start to play a huge part when you reach upwards of 115. Besides,the driver is the biggest factor when your HP numbers are so close.
