Please refer to the December issue of GM High Tech, page 86 bottom of third paragraph. Ouote 11.97 @ 118.80. If you read the entire article the ZO6 was BONE STOCK and had O.E tires.

That time is in the list.

Kbreese, to answer your question I thought I included the Borla Stingers. Even with DR's that is a fast time. He did not mention the type of wheels. They appeared to be F1's. Norm Jackson races at MIR in Maryland and occasionally ATCO which I know you are familiar with. He also races motorcycles such as Kawasaki ZX-10 9.22 1/4 mile, Kawasaki ZX 600 9.96. He's an excellent driver and rider. We are friends and he has no reason to lie. I could not believe the superb E.T.
myself. I also race street bikes. Now, this was done when the 01 Z06 first came out. He posted a thread on this info. on the Z06vette.com. site. Give me some time and I will attempt to locate the thread for you. Leon,

Black 02 Z06 - Borla Stingers, Halltech T1, HP tune, X-pipe, shorty antenna, 375rwhp/360rwtq, Dyno Tuned by Antivenom

Norman is a super driver of both cars and bikes. We raced together occasionally at MIR and Capitol.

Here is his signature from another forum:

He cited his 01 Z as modded: 353RWHP

Thanks Ranger, I'm so glad somebody believed me. I moved from Maryland to Tampa, Fl. It's a blast down here when it comes to sport cars. I got out of bikes just to purchase a Z06 and I would never go back. I'm not involved in a club but we do have a posse called the (Tampa Bay Posse). These guys are for real and it's fun. Last Saturday we took a blast from Tampa to Eckler's Reunion in Titusville, Fl., east coast about 140 miles total. Just want you to know you better be ready if you want to run with that new Z06 unless you have one. Put it this way, nobody could beat him and the speeds were up in the 165mph. There were no stock Z's riding with us. One guy with a Viper came from east coast Daytona to Tampa just to ride with us. '95 Viper, no contest with the Z06. Didn't know if it was stock or not. Thanks again for pulling the info. for me to enlighten (Kbreese) in his above post reply.

i still dont get how gm high tech traped 118.8 stock and i trap the same with a large cam, long tube headers, clutch, full exhuast and a tune putting done 417 rwhp.

Maybe it because i still have the stock 3.42 gears in the car with the big cam, if not iam putting the stock cam back in

chiefDave

IMO it takes much seat time and a very gifted driver to get a Z, esp a stock one, trapping that high. Ranger and others have done it, and I know I had to mod the crap out of my car to get what the realy good drivers did stock :o Seat time brother and do not feal bad, as most of us just look at the fast guys in awe.

With 417 RwHp you should be seeing 120+ mph without a doubt, you may have run in bad weather or you may need some seat time, most stock Z's run 114-117 mph depending on weather, get some good air with a low DA and a good driver and 118 mph stock is very likely.

crazygn

i bought a shift light for it because it seems the rpm gauge wont keep up , rev limit is set at 7000 but it will hit 6600 on the gauge and hit the limit. Maybe iam shifting to low because i cant see what its shifting at.

i was told it could drop your mph if you even shift 200-300 under what your limit is set at with a cam.

Before we pulled some timming it traped 119.5 my first run with the car but now i push the car and it wont do it, i need my seat time i geuss.

Can a moderator please make this thread sticky??.. Its constantly being quoted/used and it only makes sense to make a it a sticky..

Plus, Im getting tired of having to search for it all the time

Robert56@RNS

You guys will have to PM Major Z06. I had asked a while back and he said not at this time?

DA was -880 out around the track according to the weather station.

Here are some videos:

Many months back HRP had a rare daylight test and tune day. It was a test and tune in daylight with the clocks on. 99% of the time I run at HRP is Friday "safe street" night which is basically "street race" night, and the scoreboards are off.

Tommy was down with his car, and we made some passes in his car too. But, in the meantime I decided to make a couple of passes in my car. It had been almost 3 months since I had even cranked the car, and it had been since the fest in BG since I had actually made a pass in the car. My timing was a bit off after having driven Tommy's car so much, but I managed to muddle my way through.

Anyhow, you'll hear the car spin in 1st on almost ever pass. Track prep wasn't all that hot, and I was a bit rusty on my stock tire driving. But all in all I did ok.

Anyhow, here they are. For any of the skeptics out there, check the trap speeds (114mph).

http://users3.ev1.net/~black_ops/video/11.85.mpg
http://users3.ev1.net/~black_ops/video/11.92.mpg
http://users3.ev1.net/~black_ops/video/11.95.mpg
http://users3.ev1.net/~black_ops/video/12.01.mpg

IMHO the best video in terms of watching it to see what I'm doing is the 11.92 video. Its shot from behind the car, and you can hear me bring the revs up, and slip the clutch. You can also see a bit of clutch dust on the leave. I barely squeak the tires on the 1-2 shift, and the cars rolling into the water box don't drown out the sound until the very end.

The 11.85 is faster, but the car spins on both gear changes (lane conditions).

The 11.95 is ok, but the sound of cars doing their burnout drowns out almost all the audio after the launch.

The 12.01 I just blew the release (too fast) on the clutch, and bogged the car just a bit on the launch. Otherwise the run is ok...

Anyhow, I guess there has always been some question about how repeatable a sub 12 second run is. These were basically "hot laps" I ran all of these runs basically back to back with almost no cooldown.

Robert56@RNS

Added another time. Also, I will be adding links to time slips or videos where possible, so if you have either please post link or PM me. Thanks
Robert

I think I have a little more to get out of her, but my best to date is:

60' - 1.964
330' - 5.311
1/8 - 8.026
MPH - 91.65
1000 - 10.331

The Car is an 01 Z with a blackwing and loudmouths only, stock tune. Run was on stock F1's. I hope to see 11's with tires.... we'll see...

ohhhh here's the video. http://www.challengevideos.com/2005/.../05event9B.wmv

Good run Mike69. You most definitely have the trap speed to get into the 11's. I placed that one in my favorites for future reference.

Robert56,

Looks like the list needs a few more 2001 Z06 times.

Okay Ranger, you duplicated Norm Jackson. Actually your trap speed was better. Must took a while to find the old time slip. Yeah, at Cecil County you usually get a better trap speed, my experience when I raced sportbikes. Good Job!

Robert56@RNS

More additions, and time-slip/video links added. Do you guys think that the C6 Z06 times should be added to this list, as they are starting to come in?
Robert

shurite44

I would say no to the C6 Z06 times. Mainly because they do have a separate forum.
