Just another Z06 owner calling BS on the race uhem... speed contest..., 383 stroker... Hell, my 130+K 01 Z06 is putting down 450 to the wheels w H/C/I bolt on's...
I am actualy looking into building a nice Stroker motor and my builder told me close to 500 to the wheels with upwards of 470 tq... Oh and IBTL!

Melting Slicks
Was there traction issues? I've had a hard time a few times due to lighting the rears too much with my launch....a much less fast car can get quite a lead in situations like that..

Even though I know and agree that it is not permissible to post race stories (let alone ones with bad English/grammar), I find it funny how everyone is freaking out about how the thread hasn't been locked and the moderators haven't come to the rescue.
Seriously...the forum isn't going to crash because a poorly written street-race thread hasn't been locked.
Oh, and IBTL.
