Very impressive. THIS. 26’s are like 3 inches smaller in dia than stock. the math works out to something like 3.73 stock gears, with that much of a smaller tire, the rollout is like a 4.10 or so. big difference for sure. ---

There’s a ‘racer-trick’ guys in Norway/Sweden do with E30s- they gut the front struts. Not sure why? to use just the springs up front to help load the rear? dunno, but it sure does look funny. then again they dont have many, if any fully prepped drag strips, so they try all of those kinds of zany tricks to help get a little extra out of their setups. ---

alot of guys put V6 suspension on the rears as well…technically its still a “stock part” so they fall under that category and the spring rates are much much softer…much better weight transfer. ---

All stock suspension in both those cars. The 2011 with the SVTPP has 3.73 gears stock the 2010 has 3.55. How can you compare a Z06 to a GT500? Not the same category or price range. Granted GT500s hold there value better. My friend had debated a Z06 but the cost to make it as fast as a GT500 was too much(both being modded), PLUS he (like I) has a kid and likes to bring him for rides in the car. ---

The 2011 is lighter for sure but not an insane amount, around 120lbs. Quite a few have ran 12.0x@119ish dead stock. The guy I know with a 2010 ran 12.09@119 I think totally stock, which is faster than anything else for $47k new. The SVTPP 2011 handles much better do to suspension changes and different wheel/tire setup. ---

This is the red/black 2010 with mods, still stock pulley and no tune. I took a vid of the 10.89 run but didn’t get this one. It doesn’t have a race suspension, the D-specs are adjustable but are great for a road course as well, plus the car is lowered. Only “drag” type thing done is the radiator support that deletes the front sway bar. 10.88@128 LTs w/offroad X, axelback,JLT CF inlet tube w/SB filter-U/L with 1.5" drop + D-specs-built 8.8 w/4.10`s,,Weld RT`s with hoosiers slicks + skinnies,Kmember,rad support > **[Jacoline Bleu's Library](http://s463.photobucket.com/user/jacoline1956/library/?legacy=1)** > > View the full album on Photobucket. ---
