100% full weight street car with stock suspension, full interior & A/C. Drive it on the street just like I race it at the track, just air the ET Streets down and run.

Nice car!! and awesome Friggin run

I thought you might have a bowtie lying around somewhere

You going to the shootout at Buschurs in Oct?

I might bring the Z just for fun. Jarrod said he wants to drive it.LOL

If you see us we have the WW Evo with the Blk AMS sticker on the side and black Volks with polished lip on it. Stop by and say hello.

I know he hasn't shown his timeslip but trust me he did it and like I said with the mods I mentioned.

BTW since you have a Vette you should give Carlos a call I'm sure you would enjoy talking to him.

From what I remember from the top gear show, the FQ 320 lapped better than the FQ 400 due to the bigger turbo and more lag on the FQ 400.

I actually stumbled across a huge thread on the other board about him, I think his SN is myhardtop or something like that. Seems like a standup guy

I run against C5 and C6 ZO6's at every autocross event I go to. I beat the stock ones no problem, but there is a STS turboed C5 and With Kumho 710's and it depends on how they set up the track. If it is a fast track with big straights on a 1:30 course he beats me by a second or two. If it's a short course or alot of tight turns and alot of braking required I win by a second or 2. And I have a Stage 4 Buschur setup with their O2 housing and 272's and a custom tune by Works, and the suspension is just bilsteins off a MR, Espilier springs Cusco bracing everywhere, and a 23MM rear anti-roll bar. and the best investment you can make for handling a set of 710 Kumho's 275/40/17's THEY ARE AWESOME!!!!

I agree autocross is not a strong point of a stock Z06 or any stock Corvette. GT and Road courses are where they shine. Evos are awesome on autocross events.
