Damn fast 99 Vette.

[Ryan00TJ]

J-Rod did a 11.59 @ 118mph with a bone stock LS6. Only mods added to his Z06 were a set of MT ET Streets. He dropped the clutch at 6500rpms and pulled a 1.6 60 ft to get that run. 1/8 mile was 7.44 @ 94mph.

Yeah i would have to say a lot of it is driver. If ya got a good driver that knows how to put the power and make it stick u don't need a high horspower car to run quick. Just gotta know how to use it. :beer:

That's how its done!:bowdown:

That Cartek website really didn't explain much. How much do the Vetts weigh? That's a high mph for just 450rwhp and 3200lbs, if that's how much they really weigh.

i had a cartek stage2x h/c package on my camaro and it put down 441 rwhp and 405 ft ilbs tq through a 12 bolt and 315's. there have been quite a few cartek cars recently reach over 500rwhp w/ just heads ,cam,intake,pulley,and exhaust.

Its a modded C5 Vette.
1.Superior aerodynamics.
2.Less weight.
That is a hard combo to beat, yes the 03 Cobra is a great platform, but a modded C5 is gonna spank you everytime.

:burnout:

Yeah, I saw a ZO6 with a 60 rwhp handicap and a passenger stay in front of a 611 rwhp KB Cobra.
I rest my case.:coolman:

Cartek, LGM, MTI, etc. are making crazy numbers w/ just H/C. My next mod is a cam package. That should but me at 42X rwhp w/ an ls1-edit tune.

I dont own an LS1 but maybe modding an LS1 vette is more pricey, but overall its no more pricey building an LS1 up than most newer engines. And L98 and LT1 vettes are crazy expensive to mod.

And C5s weigh in between 3000-3300lbs in most cases. Z06s are less of course, while coupes and converts are heavier. And J-rod is a mod over on LS1tech, and those times are right on the money.

Check out the LGM G5X-3 cam, it has made 441 rwhp in a ZO6.
