Anyone got a fast street car in pgh??

[How Much?]

I never had a excuse, well maybe lack of funds can count as one.... never been rice infected,,,, mopars yes had a handfull of dodge darts,,,, but never will rice it!

[John4cam]

defending is fine...




excuses are stupid...

Defending because of the price is common sense. Not an excuse.

Hey guys I just bought these hedman headers, they fit like shit and made way less power then my kooks headers on the dyno, Go figure! u get what you pay for

[KBCobra]

what did you run at that hp? must have been pretty damn fast, or he was having trouble...

even bone stock down to the filter/run-flats, c6 z06's are nothing to laugh at.... i mean, i'd gladly smoke one, but no matter whether you're a ford or chevy guy, you have to admit they're definitely and incredible machine....

I'm interested in what's done to this blue vette as well ....

The blue vette from senge is nothing more then a HCI car with full exhaust tuned by Ed Wright. Last year I beleive it ran in the 11.70's on F1's??? Not sure if they chaneged anything on it this year or where or what the status of the car is.

I do know the senges personally...went to highschool with them and known them all my life. If there draggin on stangs then its just cause they wanna bust ur balls, there some of the coolest guys i know. They can turn wrenches on cars with the best of them, he does a ton on performance work on the side. There the ones that did my entire N20 install on the 03 cobra, they also did my Kenne bell install..longtubes, etc etc....


This thread kinda went in a million directions lol

BONE STOCK C6 Z06 on run flat street tires 10.80s???

any BONE STOCK mustangs straight off showroom floor do that?

I am not saying vettes are the best things in the world, cause everyone knows the viper and supra are, but they are still amazing autmotive machines, that can make some nice horsepower and be fast. Such as i have seen MANY videos of it taking a kb or whipple cobra to beat a stock c6 z06... Yea you say they cost more, but take in the value that they have and re sale for and blah blah blah. Still if people had the money i gurantee that there would be more vettes on the road.

Or if we really wanna compare cars modded to stock.. Lets bring out the ZR1?

while ranger did take his z to 10.80 in a mineshaft, not everybody can drive like that, and thats far from the norm. Hell first time I went to the track I beat one

C6's are nice cars, believe me when I say that, as I cross shopped them when I was serious about getting "the" car I wanted. They didn't do much for me at all. I drove one on a track in las vegas too (the kind with turns ). They just lacked the overall 'special' touch and in your face quality that the 03/04 cobras have (plus I've been in love with the cars since I first laid eyes on them in the fall of 02).


I can't stand the modded vs stock arguments, as it only boils down to two particular cars at one given time that anything is ever really going to happen. If your car is stock and it bothers you when somebody says a modded car is faster than yours.... maybe instead of getting upset you should buy something??

This thread went to hell over the weekend lol

isnt the new zr1 only in the 11's anyway? and a zo6 going 10.80's?...

Exactly.

Exactly.

U beating on ur stang,cause it wont come out of the garage?

[mineralrob]

Your right i almost forgot what this thread was about,haha. btw that blue vette is a nice car and IMO will outrun alot of stangs roaming the streets around here with the exception of a few here and there. Senges are def cool people from my experience thru talking to them.

So wait, are you telling me that you think your cobra handles better than a c6 corvette?

if so

If not, i must be reading it wrong

i havent seen a 1/4 mi specs for the ZR1 ... but there might be some out there...

most of the talk has to do with how quickly it goes around the Nurburgring

it was in the new car and driver....so what you gona do now brent? what you gona do now?

The zr1 was on the cover of it a few months ago too, they got their hands on one to beat the s**t out of. lol.

Mustangs and Corvettes are two totally different beasts, imo..

[scott5]

If they are so different why does everyone comparing them together on every magazine? its always a comparison between the two..

yea sorry to say, but i HAVE to disagree, i mean everyone does have there own opinion, but i rode and drove both and sorry i think the c6 in corners handles a LOT better than a cobra

I dunno, i dont have any magazines here with both of them in. I ment the Zr1 and the Zo6.

i never said anything that compared the handling of the two cars. I know the vette is a better handling car and i was prefacing that by saying that i drove one on a track. I'm not saying one is always better than the other; but for me i found that i liked the old cobra more than the new vette. Sorry if i didn't make that clear enough. Besides that, i wouldn't have been able to enjoy the vette in the same way as the cobra because i wouldn't have been able to find one as perfect as mine or nearly as fast as mine for anywhere near the same price- which was very important to me

I don't think "Mustangs" and "Corvettes" were compared in magazines... atleast not until the z06 and shelby gt500...

until then, it was obvious that they were two different monsters, as clark said...

gotcha

only thing i can say about the handling is this... i've never drove a cobra, but been in a couple... and i have driven a vette... and obviously, driven my Trans Am.... they all handle well, but the difference is where the corvette is EASY to yank through the turns and it feels easy to make it handle like a champ... the T/A handles well, but you its hard work to make the thing handle well... i expect the cobra to be somewhere in between

I don't remember a thing I read on this thread except that someone brought up the KR...
