    Default A little run to Mexico.....

    My stepson and I took the car out Sunday and met up with a few friends for a few runs in Mexico:

    This one my stepson did.

    turbotuner20v 09C6 widebody rear c6 with a Procharger making 560whp, runs damn good
    tailwag 08Z that has muffler mod, intake and tune makes right at 490whp, but run WAY better than that, he is a killer driver
    pirate#3 06Z intake, longtubes, off road x and tune make 511whp
    me 07Z with a Procharger making 560whp

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-vG2uwCfxY

    more videos under his profile

    This was my first time out since buying the car and driving it hard. Have a couple of cooling issues to resolve and a bigger intake to go on with a better tune, and will be back out.

    tailwags car is a beast in 4th, cannot believe how much better the gearing is in the newer trans.

    thanks for watching

    hey...nice vids. few comments if you dont mind...

    This: me 07Z with a Procharger making 560whp

    should put a bus length on this:

    turbotuner20v 09C6 widebody rear c6 with a Procharger making 560whp, runs damn good

    and several bus lengths on this:

    tailwag 08Z that has muffler mod, intake and tune makes right at 490whp, but run WAY better than that, he is a killer driver

    I didnt know who was who in the vids...but something with the AO procharged z is seriously wrong....to the point where I wouldnt drive it until you resolve the issue. A boosted ls7 that isnt running right is asking for disaster - thin block walls, and not built for boost.

    thats my 2

    either way, thanks for sharing.

    thanks for your 2cents, but the car runs fine, as i stated above, this was my first time out driving the car hard. i need more seat time, ie missing gears and not knowing what gear to start in. the car has been thoroughly inspected prior to my purchase a few months back and checks out just fine. i am working on the cooling issues and will be back out with a different story.

    but even if you wound out 3rd gear from 70, and ANY of the above cars did the same....you should WALK AWAY.....no shifts

    Both stockish Z's should also be about neck and neck with the c6

    Even granny shifting, a blown Z should walk on NA Z's

    A procharged Z06 should kill just about anything on the road.
    A world where medical advances allow us to live forever is a terrifying thought...
