ack! you need some meats out back with some serious tires, like S03s or SP9000s, T1-S etc. Be careful, with the power you're making it will be tough keeping all 4 tires on the road!

You can fit 245s all around on those wheels, much like guys do with stock rims. Bigger contact patch, and your braking distances will decrease also.

turn up the b00st. so theoretically you are saying a 600 hp 13b can't take a 500hp 20b and it is all dependant on engine size? as a rotary owner you should realize size doesn't matter for some things

I herd spin in 2nd but didn't in 3rd. It looks like the Z06 got a bad start to the races (more so in the first). When the FD makes the long shift from 2nd to 3rd he doesn't fall back at all. This tells me the vette isn't at WOT or maybe in the wrong gear.

Either way the FD is faster as you can see when he's in 4th gear.

I guess it depends on how much power you have. I always pull the most in 4th.

Why do people say stuff like this? If he says it was a ZO6 it was a ZO6. Is it so hard to believe that a fast *** 7 destroyed a 380 whp vette?

WOW, that does sound great. I also like how you start to pull, stop, and then pull away again. I know it's the shift, but it looks really cool.

Nice vid!!

Good kill, you were lucky that the highway patrol officer was preoccupied with writing up a ticket (23 seconds into the vid), or else you and your buddy would have gotten into some serious trouble.

but it does look like a cop when you watch the vid for the first couple of times..

some highway patrol cars are black or dark colored, then have a white door or something..
