We are all here to seek approval and validation in certain regards. It's very noble on your part that you choose not to follow the pattern but your going to catch heck for it too. Fbodfather himself stated that he was weary of those people on this forum who did not list their vehicles and where they lived and it makes perfect sense. You fit the mold of those weary people, that's why you get crap about it. I've seen others get on you about being a troll too because of that because they do not know where you stand. So I say yes, It is important to list your vehicle to let others know what you drive and what part of the country you live in. If you don't you got something to hide, thus you lose a little thing called credibility. Comprendez? And 3 cars in three years? that's rough but you should always list your current one. Look at mine see, I'm not afraid to post what I got, And nobody has said boo about it, ya know why? Nobody's ever accused me of trolling (at least not yet) OOOOhh, ok, I just caught something in your post...you do not have allegiance to any manufacturer, aaahhhh, there lies your problem, you don't know which side of the fence you belong on.

Not with the 11.9 pass that currently is the record. That would put the ZL1 at #33 on the stock C6 Z06 fast list on CF. Also the 11.9 pass is surrounded by controversy. If it was done on drag radials it would be tied for last on the non-stock tire fast list.

He didn't say the ZL1 was on par with the Z06. He was referring to the new Shelby. You may want to read through posts a little more thoroughly before blindly replying.

My bad, I got lost. I still believe it won't be on par with the Z06. It will still be a few tenths behind in a straight line. The Z06 has proven to be a beats on the strip. I could see low 11's out of the GT500 on a tires, Z06 has done 10.70's.

I honestly don't pay that much attention to there times. What is the average on stock tires?

What tires? If you're talking DRs I'd say you're right about the GT500, if you're talking slicks or ET Streets, it'll almost certainly be faster than low 11s.

What's up with GM?
I will tell you, they are trying to MAKE MONEY, not produce niche cars that will only sell a few units. Lets just wait and see how many GT500s and ZL1s are sold in the next few years as gas prices rise and CAFE standards start getting tougher and tougher to comply with. Are you really that unhappy with a 580HP car with 100,000 mile warranty? |

Every car HAS had mechanical track day issues covered on it, it depends on the issue and the dealership. The question is if it will always be covered (it won't) or if it'll be covered more frequently than the competition (who knows, but I wouldn't count on it). |
