its not stock, forgot what he did to it. he trades them in every 2 or 3 years for the updated version, so he doesn’t go overboard on mods.

But I’m not condoning racing, was just a thought.

yah but he doesnt have the gearing or aerodynamics that the Z06 does…thats the problem.

it would be one hell of a cool race to see tho…none the less. I’ll prolly get stuck in the z06 video taping like always lol

well…the Z06 does 96mph bone stock in 2nd gear…we had it up to 190mph when it was stock (just had a tune) and it was still pulling hard…

add another 250hp to that

also, he wont bring anyone he doesnt know for a ride in his car…he’s weird about that.
