Default Z06 Runs 11.04 Quarter Mile at 128 mph



You may find yourself getting a little hot under the collar just listening to this modified Z06 roaring up to the start line for a drag race against a poor, unsuspecting Audi R8.

Read the rest on the Corvette Forum homepage. >>

Not even close. Stingray is a better suited competitor for an R8.

A modified Z06 is faster than a stock R8...wow, who'd a thunk it?

"The Z06 has been modified with headers, exhaust, pulley, and a tune that puts down 661 horsepower to the wheels or 750 hp at the crank"

and ran 11.04 @ 128MPH? --- that's kinda what the Z should be running.. um.. stock.

It's a fast time.. don't get me wrong.. But, for an extra 100HP over OEM, I'd have expected more.

Elevation and DA could have been a large contributing factor.

Otherwise, I agree. A Z06 with those mods should be crushing mid 10's all day long.

Not that impressive since Chevys own projected time with the 7 speed is 11.2@127 BONE STOCK I'd be impressed.

And don't forget the driver's mod. At least he was knocking at the door for a 10 second run. There is another video with a bone stock Z06 with drag radials with 10.90 run. Still this was a nice pass.
