Default Brought the Z out to play with the big boys again...

Some of you may have saw my other post where I brought my bone stock 08 Z06 out on a friends private road to do some comparison runs.

Well, we did a few more the other day. I ran the modded Porsche Turbo S again that I've ran before (Has GT2 turbos, flash, diverter valves, and the owner custom tunes it himself and it is on 100% race gas... guessing it pumps out between 530whp - 550whp). Same results as last time, pretty even. He would get into boost hard and start to inch out, but then shift... where my gears would reel him back. One run I got a solid jump and held it pretty well.

A modded M6 joined us as well, which I pulled by 2-3 cars or so

Alongside a Supercharged 997 Porsche Carrera... pumping out probably 450whp. Pulled a solid 3 cars on it I would guess.

For videos, check youtube and search for vettefish and look at the very end of my favorites for all the fun-filled runs.

Again, the C6Z represented and is gaining more and more respect hanging with these well driven and modded cars.

Hey they have big price tags on them! That's gotta count for something.

The "cool" thing to do in my area is have a TT Viper.
