3 new Z-06's...So far at the track..(Englishtown)...not one has trapped over 116...
What year new??... after all I've read and seen on TV about these suckers, I find this hard to believe.

Marc87GN said:You said NEW Zo6s. Now you are backing up. I could care less what you whitnessed. I have seen ****ty drivers in everything. I would expect a 90-110K car to run fast consistently with a freakin 5 speed automatic. My wife could have made 10 second pass with my Turbo 99 GT auto on slicks. You are not the only person that has been to the track and whitnessed ZO6s make passes. I'm a Mercedes Benz ELITE graduate and was a tech for a few years so I have probably forgotten more about MB cars than most people will ever know.
I guess this was Mario Andretti & John Force.

If anyone here thinks that every new z-06 is going to be ripping off mid 11 sec passes at 125mph...They are sadly mistaken...
Not saying that the car isnt capable of it...Like I stated originally...Some people just have comprehension trouble...Just saying that not all drivers will be up to the task.
Marc87GN said:That has to be the worse driver I have seen in a long time. Spinning the tires for a few gears surely leaves very little room for any tiype of ET or Trap. You did prove me wrong though, that is still ONe Zo6 and not 3. It looked like 3 passes from the same car so we are both wrong. The problem is, I can find more videos of them running 125 mph traps than you can 116 mph, but anyone person can make any car look terrible it appears.
19TTA89 said:Not trying to make the car look terrible...In my opinion..It does a good enough job of that all by itself...(As far as looks go...Just my opinion!And I really like the look of the c5 Z-06!)Just stating that I happen to see a 06 z-06 At the track...It only trapped 116....And It didnt spin the tires barely at all on the 12.9x run...I was standing right there.I didnt have the camera with me for the other cars...It was the week before.
How about we just leave it at what I was trying to say from the beginning...Not all drivers are created Equally![/QUOTE]
Fair enough. I'm sure we both have better things to do than argue about a car neither one of us owns. If we meet at Etown, the first round of drinks is on me.
