Default Video: Lashway modded Z06 vs Bolt-ons Viper

Not sure if anyone saw this video yet but here it is. I personally know the driver of that viper and he is really good. And before anyone says it, as far as I know he isnt running anything but what is mentioned in the video.

The Z06 did pretty good and the race was close, pretty much a drivers race if you ask me, and that guy in the viper like I said can really drive. BTW, I could have sworn that I've read that doing the upper pully on these cars doesnt do much for them. Any truth to this? if so then you could say their mods are almost equal.

The Z06 has an upper pulley? The viper still pulls the high end. Pretty close as long as the race is short
Not making me very excited about a car I have ordered

C7z is a let down for the guys who wanted it to be a good roll racing car. I still say the Auto will run 10.70s when it comes out. Chebby better have a car with wayyyy less aero and better gearing for the zr1

In before the unfortunate move.

OP - these threads aren't allowed here. Cuz they compare the C7Z to another sports car.

it lost, say bye-bye in this forum but look for 'win' videos here sometime in the future (hopefully). Even a bike video was moved to 'other cars'

I was not aware of that. Moderators should move it to other cars section. My bad.

Did both have two riders? I see the Viper did. That will make a difference.

Another Dumb *** thread!!

Buying Factory ordered Vetts my whole adult life.
I've owned multiple ea..... in the generations 10 total.
C4GS my 1st Vett C5Z C6Z C7Z
With that said.

Please tell me? When was the Corvette ever marketed as a roll racer??
You make it sound like that's what GM was telling you/us.

I say HORSE$&IT!!! If you need more juice, mod it then!!!

New Z will Smoke any previous Vett on track!!!!!!! Not to mention about 35 Grand less than a ZR1............ !!!!

That's what GM said IT WOULD DO!! As of now its the most track capable Vett ever!

All this crap from CLUELESS people!
Just don't buy the car people????????????????

Too bad these threads get moved.

Looks pretty much like a replay of the nineball white viper genv vs the black c7z06.

Good news a C7Z posted an 11.39 on stock tires. that was left on the c7z forum,
