I watched the top vid and it looked pretty cool. How fast are you guys going usually?
|
It ranges. Sometimes we do roll runs and they go from 40 mph up to 140 mph. From a dig, just to whatever it takes to get to the 1/4 mile. Fastest I've been to is 186 mph in it.
mine starts to die out a bit up there lol. |
Man 186 is pretty good. Now you get a taste of what Jeff Gordon's doing in his Chevy (think he's still with Chevy). I'm not a NASCAR fan, though, PLEASE get that right. NFL, NBA, PGA, good. NASCAR, NHL, MLS, eh... no.
I assume you're using stick shifts? I know that from racing games like Gran Turismo (still didn't get 4, I've got 3 still. Good game). But, I'm too lazy to use stick, so I just go auto... |
LOL. Stick is good actually if you race in the mid 10's and up. However most drag race car will be an auto with a linelock (Way to launch at higher RPMs) or launch control. Autos are better in some ways due to the fact that you cant miss a shift. I prefer the Stick (and the Z06 only comes manual). I hate actually driving an auto now (unless i'm in heavy traffic, then I will choose auto anyday!).
My father actually wanted to get me introduced with John Force. His daughters are the drag racing team with Funny Cars. He came locally to visit family and film a show here. My dad had some thinkin that he could get him to possibly sponsor me lol. Would be nice, but never gonna happen. Hes got enough daughters to mess with, dont need another woman racer lol. |
Based on everything you know about cars, and how much I know, and that you know WAY more than me, I'd say you're a racer worth sponsoring. GL in your next races!
|
The corvette (new one) is ZR1, no hyphen, to defferentiat from the old ZR-1.
P.S. There are A LOT more recent articles than that. |
lol yeah, that was just one of the ones I could find real fast. No matter what it's gonna be called, I cant wait to get my hands on one. Maybe a tax write-off for my business :) I do need a C6 test vehicle lol.
|
My grampa has a C6, a crimson one. And my friend's dad has a black on black 911 turbo convertible. :stcheesy:
|
Just to think this is the insane person who sits there and reads one of my posts for 3 hours straight haha. Nice race though.
I might not have a sportscar but I dropped a cleavland engine into my 1994 Ford f-150...I smoked an Evo in it so I guess the engine worked out for me. |
LOL, people are gonna be "Whats an EVO?" Well, heres a pic of our old EVO and my S2000 in the backgound. This was at the track:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...AutoXPete4.jpg EVO was a 10 sec car by the time we sold it lol. Definitely not stock. |
Did you sell the S2000?
|
Unfortunately I had to sell the S2000. I couldnt drive around with the top down during the day, and if I did I would have such a bad burn no matter what sunblock I used. So I upgraded to the Z06.
|
Hmm...do any of ya'll play Xbox LIVE? There is a game called Forza Motorsports 2, and it has over 300 different cars to choose from...including a ZO6. And every car you all have mentioned here. It's really fun...at least I don't have to pay to play it...:laughks2:
EDIT: Here is the car that I want: http://www.roadandtrack.com/assets/i...0032110333.jpg Lingenfelter 'Vette...in other words, awesome.:piratewheelgo2: Google it. |
The lingenfelter is nice. I just dont like the price of it. I would love a lingenfelter Zo6 though. Yummy!!! :drool:
|
Lol, yea, it's cool.:psmiley27:
