A '06 Z06 for 45-50k maybe in '08 kickin some GT2 booty (albeit 05 GT2 booty)...
...but still, it's almost unimaginable the kind of performance value that might be out there at some point.

you know, I didn't smoke one out of the GSP toll, I just got the right jump on him in traffic....
I'll stand by that statement to the end of time. and boy was he pissed about it too. When traffic opened up, he was LOOOONGGGG gone though. Poor sucker couldn't drive what his checking account gave him out of that gate though. Anyway, can your newly modded TT not hang with the new non-Z6 Vettes? I'd expect it to be a bit closer since you went the big upgrade kit. Didn't your car smoke a new EVO? Aren't all those "drag" numbers close?

Your a little off... Okay okay.. way off..
First..
There is no 2005 Z06.. The last of the Z06s was in 04..
The C6 Z06 will be released with a 427 kicking out 500hp and 500ft-lbs of torque in 2006.
Second..
C5 Z06s run LOW 12s with a decent driver and HIGH 11s with a very good driver.. I by no means consider myself a good driver but I managed to nail some low 1.81 60 fts which is a little tricky with this car.. This is in STOCK form (stock tires, stock intake, just the way I got it from the dealership).. Throw on some sticky tires and with a decent driver your looking at high 11s... How many APR cars are running 11s?
I got a killer deal on this classic double decker suspension bridge in the lower NY area.. Let me know if your interested its a real beauty..

With slicks and a good driver they are probably looking at mid-hi 10s..
My buddy runs high 10s with a cam in his car which lays down about 433rwhp and clicks off 1.49 60fts.. Amazing what a good driver, good clutch, and slicks can do..

For that 2 seconds or less I was pulling on the Z but then once he started
racing me, he was GONE! 
Yeah, I smoked a Viper at the track, but then again he was spinning them, had **** kumho tires, and had no idea how to drive..
Such a proud moment..

Yeah, then we can do some runs with me in 6th gear
and THEN you can tell EVERYONE how you beat some poor sap in a Z06..
Wouldn't that be COOOL!
lol.. When and where, Id LOVE to meet you
Unforunately the Z can't come out to play, its too cold out..

you and I need to chat about this episode another day over some beers for better understanding...
maybe I keep mis-phrasing what happened. anyway, the GTG is in Ct tomorow. Now that the TT is gone, what replaced it?
