Big thanks to Diablosport for sponsoring the event. You guys made it awesome for us and our crew. It ended up being a not soo organized outing but, regardless, it was a true blast. Thousands of people showed up for a great day in the hot Florida sun. We saw multiple styles and makes of cars,... from 194mph Celica's,... to 217mph Porsche's, it was a riot. I won't get into the hiccups of the event(mostly overbooked, and unorganized) but, we ended up having a DNF with one of our cars, Z07 Josh's C5R directport sheetmetal intaked Z06 ended up having what we believe to be a valvetrain issue on the dyno the day before soo, it was merely a hood orniment for the show as it was pretty much parked at the diablosport booth/trailer. We saw hundreds of pictures taken of his car though, which was pretty cool.

We saw more Vettes at this show then any other two/three cars. It was pretty cool. Not to mention about 5 or 6 ZR1's. We all stopped counting. Buddy went an estimated 195mph in his TT built G35 racecar. Onebad cad had a riot, taking his caddy to,... I wanna say in the 60's or 70's. I forgt, cause there were soo many numbers in my head from a hundred different cars. Big thanks to onebadcad for being cooler then sliced bread and throwing me his keys to his blown C6, which I drove to a speedo indicated 180mph, and also allowing my cousin Z07 Josh to drive the car as well, including his girlfriend as a passenger. They both had a blast, and appreciated it very much. Also Marco really enjoyed the ride in the CTS-V, as he hasn't been that fast in a while. He liked it.

We ended up having a large crew from my work show up, which was very cool to see. Probably about 10-15 guys showed up to show support,.. so that was cool. Big thanks to my aunt and uncle for feeding EVERYONE,...allowing us to use there trailer, the golf cart, etc. EEveryone really appreciated that. Would not have been the same without you two. My parents showed up, awesome, and alot of friends. Very cool, very good time. Totally OUR enviornment. One of the funest parts of the day was when I took the vette for a ride, took a passneger from work,... we went for a pass,.. launched awesome.... hit second,....clutch spun,..shit,.... pedal pedal,...shit, shift third.......pedal...lift.....slowly engage the throttle again,..easing into third, clutch grabed,.... hit 4th. grabbed,,.... hit 5th, grabbed..... 175 indicated.....lift.......slow,... down shift,....downshift,.... and we took the turn at the end of the track in third gear, where the car was so nicely using up all of the tarmac,....my buddy in the passenger seat,.... had the time of his life, as he just went 170+mph,... then took a corner at who know what,...at speed, under throttle,.... he thought he was inside the forzamotorsports video game. He was laughing his ass off.

So it was all about fun, all about spending time with friends, meeting new people,... and lighting a fire under my ass that, next time, January,.. I will be entering my car in this event, no matter what. I had too much fun. This is by far, was funner then drag racing for a 1/4 mile. It's the same as drag racing, right up till you hit 4th gear,.........then you engage 5th,.....and keep it matted. Wicked shit. Legally.

Peace out.

ps. I had two incar video's but, the batteries played tricks on me each time, I turned on the camera, i beeped, like it should,.. I turned my attention to the staging lanes,.....the camera turned off. So, my bad.

However, lots of pictures I am sure, will find there way here hopefully.

"A foot (plural: feet or foot;[1] symbol or abbreviation: ft or, sometimes, ′ – the prime symbol) is a non-SI unit of length, in a number of different systems, including English units, Imperial units, and United States customary units. Its size can vary from system to system, but in each is around a quarter to a third of a meter. The most commonly used foot today is the international foot. There are three feet in a yard and 12 inches in a foot."

Ha. My brain fires faster then you'd could spin the fancy little steering wheel in your doughnut, I mean "drift" video, OF YOUR STOCK z06. Oh, and lucy. Since we're getting to specific's here, like in your elaborate footage description..(this -> " <- would have worked,...being an X carpenter and all)...I found something that should help you sleep at night. You know that feeling, every night that you have, laying in your bed, looking at the ceiling,... wondering, who's penis is fabian-faggian,,,(excuse my spelling..i'm a tad slow),...going to be rubbing in and around his mouth tonight,.... you've been wondering what to do,... should you come out,....should you keep it a secret. No no no,....don't be bashful my little fairy fucker,... come right out singing and dancing. Look, you even get a title with your very own description too. Hootie hooooo.

Faggot, often shortened to fag, is a pejorative term and common homophobic slur against lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people, and is English slang. Its pejorative use has spread from Australia and North America to varying extents elsewhere in the English-speaking world through mass culture including movies, music and Internet. More recently, the word has become a general insult against a particularly annoying or idiotic person.

Oh, and breath mints won't help. Try draino

:secret2:

...only reason why the airbridge on the stock car is squashed, is because of clearence, not a performance tweak for velocity or something. The radiator height, and the low celing of the hood, means very little clearence for anything thicker then 2 1/2 inches. So you either get a hood that has that sort of clearence, or you modify the cradle, and OR, radiator angle/ deck heigth.

The way I see it, if the inlet opening is 4"'s..... then it should be 4" 's the whole way. No rocket science involved. Typically these gains are massive on forced induction cars,... little is to be gained on an NA setup. However, this car is destined for much more NA power,...so we wanted as little restriction as possible..... cause that what the factory bridge is, a restriction.....at some point.

Any heatsoak issues with the sheetmetal Wilson on the blue Z06?

My bad, I did not see this question.

The car seems to drive fine IAT-wise driving on a 30 mile street/traffic test drive. No issues or any differences driving normal. The car actually has some sort of valvetrain/lifter/camshaft issue which we need to figure out. It went to a shop a while ago when neither of us had any time to work on it, and since it has came back, the car has never been driven hard,...hardly actually been driven at all, now we install the intake manifold and now, the car falls on its face after 5000 rpms,.... like a lifter is failing or we're loosing spring pressure possibly. I dunno. either way, my cousin and I need to spend some time on the car. Just sucks cause we have little time in these next few weeks.

We'll keep you posted.

That's a bummer, sorry to hear it. That car is sick though! I recognized it from a couple previous threads and actually remembered England Green posting up a long time ago about putting that intake on. Hope y'all can get it worked out without much hassle!

Cool deal. The car was at england greens for a drivetrain issue, the intake was just being shown off there as it is some serious jewelery , even sitting on a desk. We've had the intake for , hell, like a year and a half or something,.. and now, finally installed it,.. The blue car, as corny as it sounds, is pretty famous. It wrecked the street racing scene down here in miami sveral years ago. Since then, it's been hard to beat however,.. it's been dormant now for a while. We really hope to have this car out again soon, as we have big plans for it as well. Might go solid roller. :eek2:
