I passed him when we got on the freeway and I saw him coming up behind me. I blip my brake lights a little to show him that I'm interested and move over the the middle lane. He pulls up we he says 3 beeps. I go into 3rd gear and on the 3rd beep we go. Right off the go, he pulls about 1/2 a car on my because I wasn't spooling up and my RPM's were around 4-4.5k. He ends up about 1 to 1.5 cars head of me.

We do one more pull this time I'm around 5-6k and spooling and then on the 3rd honk we hit it. Again he pulls a little on me and we are going and he is slowly pulling away. Be the time we shut down, my front bumper is on his back bumper.

All in all I was pretty amazed that I stuck with him. I have a 94 FD with stock twins and all bolt ons running stock boost/fuel setup. I am running REALLY rich right now, so I'm pretty sure if I upgraded my fuel system and got a tune for around 12-13psi I might be able to pull on him a little. It was a 2002 stock z06. Was a good guy.
I had almost the same experience with a C5 Z06, the one I raced had an exhaust on it sounded great.

My car had 12psi tuned by Steve, Intakes, Med IC, D/P, HFC, N1. Except we went 2 times the first time we started from 100kmh in 4th so about 3500rpm the second time I started from third and we went up to ~ 220km/h (toping out 4th). First time I got raped and second time he was walking me. Strange thing is we continued the second run and there was one of those long curbs in highways going 200km/h+ we entered the curb at the same time, I came out of the curb he was still in the middle of it maybe 10 car lengths behind.

Nice death. I hate it when people argue on her about rpm's and why he lost or won. Nice job with the race I hope to get a chance to run a Z06

This is a funny thread because we know their is not a single FD that could beat a C6 Z06. And we all know that no FD out there makes 500+hp. :shakes head:

And for a C5 Z06 they only put down about 365 stock so an FD with 300+hp would run pretty close to it, and with about 330-340 could probably take it due to about a 300lb advantage.

You still had about half a gear left or so, enough to get a little jump or get them fully spooled, should have dropped to 2nd.

Break boost is also your friend.

Stock C6 Z06's are fast, but they're beatable if you're pretty well modded. There is one guy that took his stock C6 Z06 to the track on Drag Radials, and ran a 10.85 or so IIRC. It took him a total of around 55 passes to get it down to that, but he did, and IIRC the same guy also has the fastest time on a stock C5 Z06 on DRs. Stock C5 Z06s aren't nearly as hard to beat, but they're not easy either, so hanging close to one is respectable.

I haven't raced many cars since going single, and I'll admit that I 'lost' my first race to a VR4. Long story short, my tires couldn't handle 10psi on the T67, and the ***-end of my car was catching up to the front-end, and fast. Even when I kept out of the gas a bit to limit my boost, I wasn't able to keep it from breaking loose, so he 'won'.

Quick Marge! Pull out the video camera that we carry around so we can download it to the car forum so JIC will know we raced! Get real.

So because someone doubts it that wasn't there it's not credible? I could care less what you think, I know the guy and I have ridden in the car when we ran a modified Porsche GT2. Dead nuts and we were making less hp and the guy in the Porsche was ALONE.


You don't have a clue what you are talking about.

The guy who did it in the C6 Z06 is Ranger. He has over 600 passes in C5's and C6's and nobody has gotten those times but him. He has everything from shift points to temp calculated out.
Boostn7 ran in the 10's at 126 on the stock twins with a whole lot less than 600 runs under his belt.

Hey Big Mouth, you are in the Bay Area? Why don't you pull out your FD & you can run my CYM (you know, the one that couldn't have pulled a C6 ZO6 on Hwy 280)? We can do a 3rd gear roll from say, 70 - 130 mph (same conditions that took place with the ZO6). You can witness for yourself how "slow" my CYM is. I hope your FD is quick or you are going to need binoculers to see my rear end.

Anytime you are ready....I've got over 400 rwhp - should be FUN.

-Matt

Andy, take up the offer. I'll get your car running this weekend and we can do some "minor adjustments" for a 150shot set-up I have "laying around" with some more goodies.

You'll be around 520ish untuned on the bottle.

If jic isn't game, I'm down.

We talking about you or him? I don't give a shi# about you and your car. I'm very familiar with an LS1 motor and Nos.

What's the matter is he afraid to run his LS1 the way it sits against a twin turbo car ?

That's great! then you should have known how much nitrous and time of usage it actually takes to blow on up. And yes, that's great you know about the NOS Brand.
