Ranger,
Awesome... Now I really have something to tell about the Z06 and what is capable of!! Great job!
I saw the ZR1 do a similar time that you were driving.. Does this mean the ZR1 should do better?

Are sure about that launch RPM. I launch mine at 4600 with almost dumping the clutch a very very slight slip and my best 60 ft is 1.67. Stock clutch and drag radals.
We need to have a fast list for folks that race at MIR. Its at least 2 tenths and 2 mph faster than any track in the country.

Ranger,
You can teach somebody how to hit a baseball every waking minute, but that doesn't mean they are going to play in the majors. Practice and hard work has certainly been a key for you but one still has to possess the skill to carry the task out.
I've applied for a trademark soon to be a registered name for you:
The human sequential!
I will have your chariot waiting for you at Autobahn this upcoming season so you can continue to practice between all those needless turns!
Congratulations and safe travels!
Mike

It was great to be there and watch the passes! As always it is a pleasure to race with you....One thing people who dont race with you and only read on the boards dont realize is how repeatable your racing and driving is! And how you do all this to make your day a SUCCESS, but you also go so far out of your way to make everyone elses day a SUCCESS TOO!

Not true! There are other tracks just as fast in the northeast! When you race a lot and are a good driver you will put together a perfect pass now and then and today was his day! It could of just as easily been at Atco or Englishtown. The weather didn't make that pass!

Congrats to Ranger and the C6Z06. You can't get a car this fast, and this cool for 3 times the money, and few can do what Ranger can do with it.

There's a ton of hidden potential in these cars 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.
You’re driving skills are legendary and make us proud.
Happy Holidays
