1 Mile Run

[GaryZ06]

Hey guys and gals.....The other day I did a very cool car event.It was a 1 mile run...It was from a standing start to the end of 1 mile to see what speed you can get too.....here is a picture of my GPS unit and also the video of the speedo.I could not floor it until just after 3rd gear....if I did I would just smoke the tires...oh the car is a modded Corvette C6 Z06

That's a hawwwwwling some arse right there.

[zingo]

Wow! I hope you did that on a track as I wouldn't want anything to happen to that sweet ride. Just for kicks, how modified is your Z06?

[Serendipity]

The fastest I've ever driven in a Corvette ('09 C6) is 65.

Not a track but a 2 mile runway.....I would never do that on the street.My Z06 has cold air intake,cam,headers ported TB and intake and a tune.

How much HP/TQ can these things handle on the stock drivetrain?

[Serendipity]

And how much HP/TQ does your car put down to the ground?

Well it depends if it's street driven car or if it's track driven.There are people who have 600+ HP on the street and have no problems....it all depends on your driving style.

Very cool!

That is awesome! I remember you mentioning you were going to do this event sometime in the past; glad to see the outcome. Bet it was a lot of fun. Any issues with crosswinds and keeping it straight down the runway, at least after traction was no longer the biggest factor? Do you have any more modification plans for it, or just enjoying how it is for a while?

Thanks for sharing!!

Yes it was crazy fun but when your hauling butt your are very focused.At the beginning there was no problem with the wind but towards the end of the day there was a head/cross wind.It did move you around just a little to where you noticed it.Right now no plans for mods cause it has sick power and is reliable.

You should be ashamed! How big is your carbon foot print? Wait until Al Gore hears about this!:D;)

First let me clean them That equals to about an estimated 620-630 at the motor

That's a great spot to be!! Congratulations on the job you've done with the car; do continue to enjoy it how it was intended to be: by being driven hard!

Thank you...I'm not the average Vette owner...I drive it...and sometimes drive it hard and yes it does get wet in the rain....I'm not saving it for the next owner.

My dream car is a Vette. Working on it - I've got about 4-6 years of plotting and scheming before it happens. Even then, it won't be a high-end Z06 - just the regular car.

BTW - I don't think I've ever broke the century mark in a passenger automobile.

It will be worth the wait then hit the track and have some fun.

I know. 100-150 more and you'll be able to run with the big boys, if you know what I mean. ;)

Dale would be proud. :D
