There were some fast race prepped Z06s at the Track this past weekend. If you haven't been to the track; you don't know what you are missing...

Excellent Vid!!!! I spent 2 days at Watkins Glen this summer and it was the most fun I've EVER had in my life in/on/around any motor vehicle in my life. Sold my coupe and am now looking for a Z06 to be prepped for next May's return trip to the Glen.

What are the requirements besides a helmet to ride around on a track like that?

that's Barber Motorsports Park; Birminghan, AL. Requirements: Your car has to be tech inspected - there's a check list. That's basically it, besides money
