heres an 11.1.. ill let u idiots sleep on that one, till your POS vette puts out its best

 

IIRC the ZR1 is running 11.3@131.

 

So you post an aftermarket version when you made a stupid response about ETs on stock versions. The only idiot currently in this thread is you, aftermarket equipped C6 Z06 are in the 10's you jackass, well into the 10's.

 

Didnt ranger get a bone stock Z06 to a 10.98 with only 505hp, not 638hp?

 

"Corvette Forum member named RANGER..He recently ran 10.85@129.7 with drag radials as the only modification. He has run 11.2's at 127 with street tires..Yes folks COMPLETELY AND TOTALY STOCK. He is an amazing drag racer. He has a video on you tube on that 10.85 run.."



What a great track, MIR is the best place to perform such runs.

 

Here is the video of the 10.85 pass by Ranger

He has actually been beat by another guy on Corvetteforum named Jamie Furman who ran a 10.83@130.05 MPH on drag radials and a 10.98@128.9 on stock tires, also bone stock other wise. He is the only known one to get into the 10s on stock tires. This is form the Z06 which the offical numbers from GM are 11.7@124. Now the ZR1's offical number are 11.3@131. Just think what the times for the stock ZR1 is going to be when it gets on a good track, with good weather, and a great driver. 10s easy on stock tires and who knows how low into the tens on drag radials. I think the only problem will be getting drag radials for the wheel size.

 

I got into this same argument with a coworker. I don't know why some people just can't wrap their brain around the fact that 3,300lbs/638hp > 3,800lbs/480hp. These same fanboys don't seem to have a hard time understanding why a 300hp civic hatchback is faster than a 300hp Mustang or Camaro. But the physics of less weight + more power don't seem to apply when it is to the advantage of the domestic car.

 

You point out a very valid point.

 

I'm still impressed with the GTRs time around the 'ring. It weights 500 lbs more, has a lot less hp and is still only a bit slower. Thats some kickass engineering right there.

 

Valid points, especially very valid points have no place on this message board.
