You have to know how to handle this kind of h.p. I was at the track last Oct. a new Z06 was running mid 12's all day, he did not know how to drive or he would be running mid11's, if they can't drive I'll beat any way I can lol.

That all just depends on what year it is. Z06 vette's have been around for about 5 years, and up till the '06 model, they only had 400hp. His car is modded to almost 500hp, so he would have destroyed a previous model Z06

Don't the new Z06 have 500 h.p. at the flywheel ? If so wouldn't he be at approximately 425 rwhp, that's with 15% drive train loss. The stang would have about 60 more rwhp.
I believe the current model has 475 rwhp

There rated at 505 Hp at the crank. Either there under rated or 475 rwhp would not be correct. I wish the guy/gal who posted this post to begin with would let us know what year the Z06 was.

Last night while rolling throughBakersfield, I pulled up along a new C6 convertable after getting off 99 to go west on 58. We drove along side for a few lights and then I was behind him coming up to a light. He would have been first in line anyway, but he moved to his right in front of another car so I would be next to him at the light. We both looked at eachother briefly and knew it was on. We rolled out, I gunned it a little, he took off. I passed him by the end of 1st and pulled 2nd and 3rd ending up 2-3 lengths in front of him. I don't know if it was an auto a manual or what. Didn't care. Just knew he was trying to catch me but couldn't.

My mods: JLT, SCT2, ZEX-75, 4.10's, JBA's and FRPP stingers.

well would of been a different story with a Z06, with your mods you are putting down what 350 rwhp, thats what he puts down in a new vette base model and he is lighter by 600lbs, good kill he should of beat u

man oh man, what a rush. so last night i'm on my way to a friends house. a black Z06, this thing was BEAUTIFUL, pulls up by me at a light and right away starts teasing me. i give the rev and its on. he pulls off by about 2 lengths(stock rubber cant cut it) but all through second i'm gaining. i slam it into third and by the time we hit 100 i was 1/2 a length on him. he hits the brakes, he knew he was beaten.

oh man, when it was over my chest was burning from the adrenaline. what a rush. when i got to my friends house i got out of my car and kissed te hot *** hood

I raced a C5 last summer and held him off through third as well. That was with the 3.55's, now I have the 4.10's. The Z06 would have whooped me bad (a new one at least). My buddy has an 03 Z06 and I'm gonna try and get him to line up to see what happens. I'm not optimistic about winning but I'll try. He doesn't hardly drive it so I'm hoping he smokes the tires. Maybe one racehe willsmoke the tires. Actually would rather he didn't so I know how close I am to him.

Really think only 350 rwhp? Probably I guess. We (my friends up here)are trying to set up a dyno day for this Saturday. If it happens I'll be sure to post.

if you think you killed it ok, but theres no waythe vette tried
Not only did he kill it, he came from 2 car lengths back and still finished 1/2 a length ahead, according to his story...which I fully believe with 483rwhp in a supercharged mustang...
