Default raced a c6 z06

well i see them all the time, never been able to race one though (track or street).

ran into a yellow one today, going bout 40 after takin a turn onto the local highway i nailed it, then he nailed it within half a second (like he saw the race comin lol). i got a lil on him at first, but after that it was slowly pullin on me. even at the end of 2nd, he had a good 2 cars on my when i hit the end of 3rd, and after i shifted into 4th, he was still pullin like crazy lol. i let off at about 110, and he looked like he had to be doing 140 at least.

i was only pushin 10psi at the time, so i had more in it, but i definately dont think it would have made it "close".

those things are no joke from a roll. id love to run one at the track (as long as it was stock lol). the quickest one ive seen at the track went 12.2 with a tune (but trapping crazy mph)

What boost do you normally run or do you run race gas at the track

i run 10-10.5psi on the street with a 93/94 octane.

at the track i run 12psi with 100 octane. id like to get the 12psi to a 11.7 or so before i up the boost.

now, all the tuning is done for 93 octane, so the added octane is just for piece of mind. im going to do a 14psi with a 100 octane tune to go for that roll cage territory.
