LG Motorsports has already gotten ahold of a new Z06, and with minor mods it has already seen 492rwhp. No telling what the LS7-Edit will do!

No real purpose to post this except to say that they are trickling out already and we are all in trouble! :thumbsup:

Is it just me or do the Vette and the Viper look dangerously alike? :eek:

Those are the kinda twins the wife would approve of, twin daughters of different mothers, if you will...

So True. Its good they used the Z06, I saw an article in Automobile with a huge shootout of cars, and they just used a C6 vs top of the line vipers and other cars...wasnt really fair. But that is pretty cool data.

All cars look alike when you're standing still and they're going past a buck-98.

At the cost per MPH the vette is still a bargain. I wonder if I could put the vette drive train and suspension components in my vette? :willy:

You know what I think is cool? The new Z06 should put and end to the thought that 19" wheels are poser wheels!! 325/19's street tires on the rear, 11.5 quarter mile , 1 g corner. Need I say more?

Not a chance. She HAAAAAATES Vettes.

The guys with the Vette belt buckle, vette sunglasses, vette hat, vette keyfob, vette polo shirt (with gold chains and hair shirt) and vette members only jackets completely ruined it for me.

Off topic, DT, but I'm curious what you flew in the USCG ? I'm looking for a good used Herc to haul cars to shows and my wife's shoes to our summer home, but I need a Captain...LOL. :D

Please don't put all vette owners in that catagory, I have a few "t shirts" but not all the other BS. I've done all my own work on my 73 and continue to look for mods for my vette. Rod

Who would have thought that a 500hp Viper would be slower then a Ford and a Chevy in this day and age. The Chevy has by far the best motor of the bunch and is twice as cheap as the GT. And I normally hate vettes. WOW.

The LS7 crate motor will "only" set you back $15k or so :unibrow: . It would be sweet as all get out though ................ oh wait your car already is :D . Well, the new Z06 is still bad as hell :willy: .
