The guys who have put up the best numbers with the C6-Z and the C5-Z (at least with a stick) have been those who spent tons of time at the track experimenting with launch techniques, tire pressure, etc before they got their best times/mph's. And weather/track prep had a tremendous effect as well.

The reported mph's of the Vipers are impressive...what are the ET's?

Please stop trolling. This is a thread about a specific drag strip shoot-out, not "Post stupid videos of Z's on the dragstrip."

I respectfully disagree... I think a stage 3 car will leave ~2mph on the table, IMO. YTSMV lol

Please leave this thread. People want to know what the results are - not to speculate or post unrelated videos or pics.
