I personally have destroyed M6's in my 380 wheel (on a mustang dyno) manual Z51. I went from 35 to 100 with a friend of mine who owns a silver M6 and he said he quit at 100 because there was no point that I was pulling to hard. He thought I had nitrous and he preceeded to search my car for half an hour. Also I have seen on M5board.com a Stock Z06 vs a full bolt on and cammed M6 and the Z06 barely pulled him by a half a car. Also the M5 posts the same quarter mile time as a stock 2007 C6 so likely the M6 which is only 90 pounds lighter would be around the speed of an LS3 Vette. Also our weight advantage wont count for as much at 100+ But we are much more aerodynamic (.28 vs .32) we have more torque (they have 383) and were about 730 pounds lighter. But they do have more HP (500) and shorter gears (3.62 vs 3.42 Z51) But i can personally assure you that if you have a manual Z51 LS2 with headers, exhaust, intake, tune you will crush them if you can drive.

Also other cars you will beat when your at 380/390 on a mustang dyno on a Z51 Manual wit a weight of 3095 with a short shifter a battery relocation are: Porsche GT3RS, F430 Spyder with Exhaust, SLK55 AMG, Bolt on Mustangs with 100 shot, and other assorted EVO's,STI's and 350Z's.

GT3RS= pulled 1 car to 140.
F430= Pulled 4 cars to 140 (he had a passenger and the top was down)
SLK55= Complete beat down wasnt even a race
Mustang= went from a 20 roll he had drag radials i had run craps he was even with me while i was spinning and when I caught traction I just walked away.

Sorry but I have a hard time believing you DESTROYED him when a C6Z06 only pulls away slowly. The M6 driver must have been a very amateur driver if thats the case.

And he spent a half hour of his life looking for your bottle, ummmm, ok
