kelleyperformance Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 i think it will be cool, but honestly.... i personally will wait till it gets here and see what its really about. i think we all remember the "corvette killer" gt500 that ended up getting its ass kicked by a base auto trans C6 . but even if the ads are true, thats what we will have the ZR1 for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black2003SS Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 Buy a Corvette Z06 for $65k, drop about $20k into it and stomp that thing in the ground. That is, even it really can take a stock Z06, but 11.6 is a far cry from 10.9 which has been done in a pretty much stock Z06. Buy American, stay American.

04CHASE Posted December 26, 2007 Report Share Posted December 26, 2007 10.9 was accomplished in an all stock z06 recently , everything was stock down to the run flat tires. now if the zr1 has that much more power. a good driver and good conditions you could see a low low 10 out of it . i dont think 9's will happen though maye with a pulley swap but not muc to get 9's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shreveportSS Posted December 26, 2007 Report Share Posted December 26, 2007 (edited) Those numbers they quote do not add up to a C6 Z06 Killer, In fact they are not close. Add US emissions, and safety standards and it will get even slower/more cumbersome. I call BULLSHIT!

adams2003 Posted December 26, 2007 Report Share Posted December 26, 2007 Im not gonna call bullshit, but im not agreing that it will be a z06 killer either. The best comparison will be both cars, on the same track, same day etc. with good drivers. Although once the ZR1 comes out it should whip all ass!!!

detjoe Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 here is how it kills the ZO6: 1. COST 2. Technology-push rods vs twin turbos 3. Launch control-hold the rpm's @ 4500 till you release the brake. 4. AWD Too bad I dont have the $$ to chose between Mcdonalds and burgerking. nice car oh yea the display was designed by the makers of GrandTurismo so it was easy to interface with the driver.

kelleyperformance Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 its more money than the Z06 tho..... and if its just gunna be another EVO/STi and use its launches to claim speed.... than its no good to any real car enthusiast. what happens when the poor fella cant use his 2 step, he is caught from a roll??? the answer- decimation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
