get a Z06, hands down the sickest car for the money.

I ran a bone stock one tonight and we were pretty much dead even (with him getting 1/2 car out in 3rd) from 50-170+. I powershifted 6th gear. LMAO

Can't spend $70K on a car right now.....leaning toward a Gen II viper. Will get me 95%of the way there. If I want simple quick power will go with a 100-150 shot to take care of it (have experience with that setup anyway). So if anyone sees a good deal on a Gen II viper let me know.

Illinois should file suit against Mexico for copying so much of the western highway designs from us.

Nice runs, the red Z06 definitely moves.

He told me $45k. Which sounds like a good price to me, but I don't keep track of the viper Market. The car is in Richmond, VA.

Yea got friends with just about all combos....
Built a high-power solid cam nitrous car (actually broke ground with the solid lifters in that motor)

Budy had a crazy auto TT (1500hp) that he is currently rebuilding
another buddy with a similar TT setup (6spd, 800rwhp)
Crazy TT auto was a paxton SC 6spd (900rwhp)
been in about 5 roe blower cars (all 580-615rwhp)

For bang for the buck and the actual amount of time I would use the added power, nitrous is the simplest option.....if I had $20K for mods I'd look into TT for sure.

First step though is getting the car.

Nice video, Dave!

Now I know I have to get the KB or Whipple.

BTW, I got that tune from Jon, and the car does feel better. Thanks for the tip!
