Yellow R1 pulls a C6 Z06
Ahh....this was my greatest kill of all time. Better than a 360 kill I had 2 yrs ago. Better than a modded yellow C5 Z06 kill last year. The new Z is a very worthy adversary indeed. It was a Black C6 Z06 with blacked out windows on a few repeat Hwy rolls from 65 mph to about 125 mph.
Just finished dinner with the wife & am coming down the Hwy & see a new black C6. I roll past about 2 mph & see its a Z06. Hmmm, lets see how fast one really is! I downshift to 4th, step on it a little & change lanes - Bingo - I guess he hears the BOV wants to play. He changes lanes, shoots up next to me, downshifts so I can hear his 427 :wink: . OK, downshift to 3rd, going about 65mph & he's just waiting. Fuk it - I nail it & the CYM screams through 3rd, shift to 4th & the Z is slowly getting PULLED :titty: . We ran to about 125 & I slowly pulled him by about 1 to 1.5 cars. It was very close. He didn't like that shiate at all so he decides to ride my AZZ about 1 foot off my bumper when I had slowed down again to about 70 mph. He WON't get off my azz & is lurching back there. So, here's a taste of 17 lbs of boost again Buddy :ar:. ..........What's this? .........He's getting pulled again? Same result as last time up to 125 - 130 mph (1 - 1.5 cars, but this time he was drafting me & he still got pulled). 3rd gear rolls in an FD are nasty. I'm sure that guy is scratching his head, "WTF just happened?" He never rolled down his mafia windows. Its too bad, I was going to give him props. It was a NICE Z & I'm glad he DRIVES it as it should be. Those were some fun pulls. Fyi, I'm running 17 psi (not 14 when I dynoed my car 2 yrs ago and...my clutch wasn't slipping like it was on the heavy Mustang dyno Steve Kahn & I used). It was also a nice cool evening - perfect for my M2 Large Race IC. That IC is absolutely awesome (88% efficiency). :bowdown: See ya, -Matt |
nice runs, your heart must have been in your throat....the new C6 Z06 is one bad mofo
17 psi on stock turbos? race gas? you must be about 380 rwhp....still seems like he would have won, perhaps you got the jump |
Thumbs up! Nice kill!
|
2 thumbs up! All the haters who said it couldn't be done... BOOYAH!! If only this thread was here before I raced the C6 Z06 a couple weeks back... Then they'd believe me!

Don't those things trap 125-127 stock? Your FD runs very very strong for stock turbos. I'd wager the majority of FDs on original stock twins would not have the same results. Regardless, Damn good stuff, when I come upon one I won't hesitate to challenge it. Congrats :icon_tup:

Mine is 373 @ 16 psi stock turbos.. Still dont think it would pull a c6 Z06 though. Thumbs up for good driving!

:git::bluesuit::git::bluesuit::git::bluesuit: Yes, it runs pretty strong. Thanks pal. See ya. -Matt |
Pull titties?

Hmm, sorry - I'm gonna have to call BS.
My car dynos about ~380rwhp, and I couldn't hang with a new Z06. It pulled about 2 cars on me before we shut down. The Z06s are dynoing 465rwhp, so they're also a little bit underrated. |

yeah i thought the new z06s trap 125plus and u had am passenger! not doubting your story....but hmmmmm.
|
new man law..."anytime someone mentions pulling a c6 zo6 there must be a video presented that supports the claim of the thread starter"
|
So, you got a jump on him both times it sounds like....the first time just get beside him and just take off.....and the second, he's riding you, so you just take off. Neither race sounded fair. But, if it feels like a kill to you....then more powa to ya. :)
|
I'm thinking the Z06 driver would have a different story to tell, but congrats. on the win if you pulled it off as told. :)

Yes, I made the whole race up. This is EXACTLY why I hardly ever post my kills on this little forum. Its made up of a bunch of 20 something azz clowns that call "BS" because some dumb race wasn't on "video". Ya, I'm going to drive around with my wife & carry a "video camera",..... just in off chance I might race some car so I can use it as "proof" on some internet car forum? :uh:.
Years ago this used to be a pretty good forum. Not anymore. Its become a negative/accusatory little nasty "he said/she said" tit-for-tat typefest. I thought I'd share one of my more interesting runs with some fellow rotary guys. That was a complete WASTE of time. You won't see me in the Kills section anymore. This site has become a joke. :dunno: -Matt |
whoa....slow down man. it does get bad around here but come on its a tough kill to swallow given the car makes 100 more rwhp and only weighs a couple hundred more especially given u had a passenger.

I have many a kill on that road (a 360 Modena, & a 911 GT2, which was very close with my FD, come to mind). Maybe I'll run into that 8,000 Hp LS1 FD sometime. Gotta go eat lunch. I'll take my 1,200 rwhp SLK out :titty: -Matt http://videos.streetfire.net/search/...05F58A99AA.htm |

It's also always a bummer to see the dude that needs to jump in with those cars run this or or they puts down that. Pretty lame stuff. You would think some of these guys could realize given cars don't always run like the guy that lives at sea level on a 45F day. It's all relative. Just get out some calculators and put things into perspective. |
