Ok I just about shit myself when i seen this video. Just the fact that the c6z has 100 less hp and they still run neck and neck is just amazing. http://youtube.com/watch?v=PBf-hoW_rUk

nice... any Lindenfelter TT car is bad ass

If you read the credits at the end you would see the Ligenfelter TT did NOT run at open throttle due to spinning in 3rd. gear. Don't kid yourself, that TT is twice the car the "Z" is, he just has to be careful he can hook up.

I didnt care to read the credits because it was the video that counts and if the tt z cant hook up then i guess the next mod would to be to swap out the rear tires for some better ones. It would have been a really good race and i bet the c6 zo6 would have won if they had gone from a stop.

More power isn't always good when you get to this level on the street. I mean, if you can't hook up and you're running another fast car that can...then where are you?

If you think the C6Z06 can out run a twin turbo LPE from a standing start....well I have a bridge in New York you can buy. The C6 "Z" is a fine car but not a miracle car as there is much more horsepower/torque with the LPE TT. And yes getting it to the ground is important but there is just so much you can do with 500 horseys.
Oh yea, you may want to look into your bowel problems you say your having when watching this video.

TT vette's should be doing 100mph roll races.....not 60mph. That is like hitting WOT on a stock z06 in 1st gear. Think about that then you'll understand how bad traction issues are for a TT vette at 60 mph.

the video i seen clearly shows me that the z ran neck and neck with the tt twice. all i hear about this video is boohoo the tt couldnt hook up. like i said a rematch from a 0-120 and i bet the c6z06 wins

You know there is a video on you tube of a C5 beating a stock C6 Z06 in a 1/4 drag race. The guy in the "Z" just spun his tires at the "tree" and got left behind. I think he ran a 14 for his trouble. Judging from your logic all C5's can beat stock "Z" cars.

where did you say they raced at again? oh yeah the track where you cant hook up for shit. you will always have better traction on the street than on the track unless you are lucky enough to be the first ones to race on a freshly prepared track. if i raced someone for money and beat the other person because he spun so badly, excuses or not i won and he would have to pay me or does the excuse "I SPUN OR COULDNT HOOK UP COUNT AS A TIE BECAUSE IT WASNT FAIR" As far as the video you are talking about, regardless of hooking up, the c5 vette won. WINNING IS WINNING!!!

lol, you do know the TRACK is prep'd for cars before use right? Walk out there some time and see for yourself. Most of the time your shoes will stick to the ground.

Better traction on the street? That's the best thing I heard all week.

the track is prepped for cars on the street until you get about 10 runs with dumb asses doing 15 second burnouts on regular street tires. Both of my cars run drag radials and they hook up way better on the street than the track

Don't sound like an ole drag race veteran does he!

whatever

Don't be so sensitive I think it was just being pointed out to you that you must not be familiar with street racing or drag racing.

no i dont know nothing about racing.....or it just so happens that my 93 mustang goes 10.6 n/a 9.1 witha 200 shot and my 03 cobra goes 10.20 in the quarter. bottom line... my cars or any high power car that i have driven has hooked up better on the street than it has at the track where i race in orlando (orlando speedway)

Know nothing about Orlando Speedway but if your saying that you can hook up better on the street than at Orlando Speedway...I suggest you try another track! All of the tracks I have experienced were well prepared and are re-prepped all during the racing. The street is no place to try to hook up.

THERE IS MORE EXCITEMENT WHEN IT COMES TO STREET RACING RATHER THAN TRACK AS LONG AS YOU DO IT SAFELY...... i have never ran at another track so i dont know. well.... maybe my car will go 8.99 with a better track.

What bracket do you race in to make nine second runs? Surely not Prostock?

TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH I HAVE NEVER ENTERED IN BRACKET RACING. I JUST RACE ON FRIDAY NIGHT TEST AND TUNE HEADS UP.

I think the C6 Z06 hung in there pretty well, considering that a twin turbo C5Z should be putting out alot more power. Both cars are awesome for sure.

First of all to anybody who knows squad about racing, it was pretty clear that the TT Z06 was a faster car.

But 50mph in 3rd gear?? WTF?? And does that mean that 1st and 2nd race started at 50mph in 4th gear ? If that's the case - just LOL.

It looked pretty clear to me in the second race that the TT was significantly faster. If it were not for the statement at the end I would have assumed the TT was simply pacing the C6Z in the first and third runs.

The TT cars in general tend to be roll race monsters, I would expect to see the outcome like what happened in the second run.

The fact that it could not hook up in third at 50 mph tends to support the TT being a faster car.

I do love the new Z but those Lingenfelter TT's are about the baddest thing on the road in terms of a street legal car. If I could afford it that is what I would have, no doubt. I saw a TV show where they ran a LPE TT against a F-16 fighter jet from 0-100, the LPE TT won. Street legal except for the wheels/tires they used for that run. They said it was a $150,000 car including the purchase of the car.

I found an abbreviated version of it on youtube.

LPE TT- beat the F-18 Blue Angel from 0-60 and in the quarter up to 150 MPH.

LPE TT 0-60 1.97.

1.97! Street legal!
