I was one of the ones who was definitely not thrilled with what SRT came out with and went and bought a ZR1. Now three years later with the evolution of the car and recently available modifications along with Dodge making it more reasonably priced. I have a TA 2.0 on order. Im not eating crow, I...
Im good Kristopher, yes the ZR1 is gone. I just ordered a TA 2.0
Do you have cats on your headers? Oh wait your in CA of course you do. LOL And it was still too loud. Ok.
How are you liking the snake? Any other upgrades?
The Hellcat is going to be awesome!! My SRT8 bone stock ran 12.4s, with the hellcat having another 125-140 HP it should see mid 11s easy. The Challenger is a great car, classic styling, comfortable interior, capable handling and great power. Job well done SRT.
There are quite a few shops who have fully tuned the new C7 with a new cam heads and blowers making anywhere from 600-1000 plus RWHP. So yes competent shops are able to fully custom calibrate the new DI corvette.
What a horrible analogy, I have been through a decent amount of what others have thought were hot woman, why did you let her go? Well her personalty is horrible she is conceded insecure and strives attention, she cant keep a house or cook, or she just sucks in bed. There's a lot more to a car...
I have never understood this logic. To me it screams of someone who strives attention. I don't care weather I was out in my Viper or out in my Zr1. Either car got what I feel was unwanted attention. And people making the usual comments. I don't buy or drive any car for the attention it may grab...
Bob, that sounds like an invitation to take your car for a ride while I'm in South Florida this weekend!!! All kidding aside I understand what your saying, but different strokes for different folks. I know the car at its current level would not be enough for me. I enjoy drag racing as well as...
Kris, how have you been? Anyway I was thinking the same thing this thread will have more views than the sticky about the press release images of the Gen V.
I believe you hit the nail on the head. People such as myself have not bought the new viper because of the lack of ability to calibrate...
Im not quite sure I think that the current C7 is a good indication of how the Z06 will perform on the strip. I would like to think the CTS V is a better indication as its HP and TQ curve is more on point for where the Z is going to be. Although the V is 1000 lbs more plus or minus a few lbs...
AS far as specs, GM hasnt released the weight as they are still making changes. They have made alot of changes over the ZR1 to reduce weight such as the carbon fiber torque tube, smaller blower (yuck), and the 8 speed auto is actually lighter than the 6 speed if you include the clutch and...
The auto Z06 will no doubt be a 10 sec car with an average driver. There is no way around that. More than a handful of people have had a stock ZR1 in the 10s. The power and weight are going to very close with the new Z06 as the Zr1 but that auto is going to assist a lot in the 1/4 mile...
And then when you buy a Z06 you will be changing radio stations as you are going down the track walking into the 10s. This car should have the potential of running 9s with bolt ons and a tune.
Since you mentioned the Albany winters..... are you going to be a the Street Car shoot out at PBIR next Sunday? Ill be down for with a few friends as well as running my ZR1, some of the cars signed up to run already are:
2012 McLaren MP4-12C
2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP700
2013 Tesla...
There was no club coverage on this event it was a fall cruise, and lunch was to be paid by each person. It just sucks I have been in the Viper community for over 10 years and have experienced so many experiences that have just given me a bad opinion of "Viper owners" in general. There is always...
Because a 2009 ZR1 that weighs more than the current Viper has proven to be faster. Quite a few mid 10 second passes. And no weight has been released on the Z06. But im sure your numbers are close anyway.
But it seems to be the case I have owned a couple of Vipers and to be honest have been less than thrilled with most of the people I have met in the Viper community. Many act as if the Viper is the God of cars and nothing is or ever will be better.
I will add that I have met a few awesome and...
Guess that wasnt a photo shop version after all. AS far a ground clearance, it looks about normal. And if it is lower then GM put it out there that way. The same as SRT did for the reveal in NYC. It all marketing hype we know that.
I have owned both Vipers and corvettes as most of us here have. Currently have a ZR1.
This thread is the most viewed and replied to in months here. And some say it doesnt belong. Why?? Because some are threatened by it? Im a car enthusiast and enjoy all cars with great performance. I'm not...
I think its ABSOLUTELY AWESOME he got this car to run 10s and its one hell of an achievement on his part, for taking a car that has continued to show lack luster dyno numbers and 1/4 miles ETs . And it should have been easier for others to acheive this "on paper". Being the car has 40 more HP...
Yes his video stated that and says he LOST 7 RWHP.
Ill second your motion on shifting to a ten second pass as I have a good solid handful of 10 sec passes on Vipers and corvettes. So I finally opted to have a more consistent drag racer and do an automatic tranny conversion.
It will be nice if...
