There's a ton of hidden potential in the Z06 that many don't appreicate or will even acknowledge. I and many other owners will never be able to extract it. That's why I envy and respect 1/4 guys. I know my limits and I'll stick to a road course.

No fuss or drama and the car doesn't look abused either. You make it look so effortless which makes your accomplishment even more special.

Happy Holidays

Tom

Does this mean that the Z06 on dr's only is as fast as a ZR1 on street tires in the 1/4 mile??

Very Impressive. A 1.59 60' is going to be tough to duplicate by anyone and to do it in conjunction with those conditions makes that run seem like it might stand for a long time if not forever for a bone stock z06 on DR's. Congratulations. All your hard work paid off.

Nice 60ft. really like how you got the car to hook. Great driving Ranger! What was your tire pressure on that run, if you have it recorded?

Thanks....

Congratulations Ranger!!!!

You've spent countless hours and $ doing what you love to do with a car that we all share the same respect for. Thanks for proving once again that we own one of the badest rides on the road!!!

This is no small feat...you're a very determined and highly skilled driver!!!
