so you are saying a stock c5206 > or = as pullied cobra?
Driver's race. I've seen it go both ways.
It really depends on the cars, their condition, the atmosphere, and traction at that point.
Keep in mind there are many Z06 drivers who do NOT know how to drive their cars properly. It takes about a 70-80rwhp difference for the Cobra to stay even with a competent driver.
If I had to choose, I'd take the Z06 though (as you can guess). Giving up a lot of power, but, you have the weight, aerodynamic, gearing, and setup (better IRS) advantage.
hey kid, did you know pullie cobras trap 120+mph and run high 11s "WITH AVARAGE" driver and ton of them are in mid 11s and some in low, such as 11.34@122mph in a pullied cobra? a stock z06< a pullied cobra. PERIOD.
Kid? Please.... Learn how to spell and then I'll think about taking you seriously.

Just an FYI, when me and stock C5 punched at 60mph, instantly my car started to pull away and when i was 1 car ahead, i shifted to 4th and pulled more. i am taking the driver out of the picture and comparing 2 cars, when we both punched, my cobra started to pull away. we weren't even or anything, it was instant. driver of the Z was a very good driver who is a well know street racer here and owns a 9 sec cobra.
ok dude, your car is faster. just be happy, i don't wanna ruin your day with facts.
What facts have you shown? All youve told us is that youve raced these cars and theyre your friends. Never said my car was faster then anyones car.... Just that what you said is BS.... Thats all.

Dude, I wasn't going to jump in on this until you started pulling BS out of your you know what.
A proper intake, such as a Vararam, or Callaway Honker, adds a decent amount of HP to a C5 Z06. Especially the Honker, because it relocates the Mass Air Sensor closer to the TB.
Please don't post Bullsh*t unless you're trying to be funny...
Read the thread more closely. We aren't talking about a Vararam or a fucking Callaway "Honker".

I don't doubt you, it really depends on how much the Cobra is putting down at that point and if the Z driver can A) Drive and B) was in the right gear.
With enough mods, sure a Cobra will pull on a stock C5 Z regardless of whether or not he's a good driver though...
What the fuck is a "Honker" intake? I admit that I haven't been around Vettes for a couple of years. So educate me here, it sounds completely retarded.
That made me cringe when I watched him do his "burnout".
tires were actuall wet. Don't even ask when i didn't get the slicks wet and dumped the clutch at 6k to do a burnout and dam thing hooked and i thought i wheelstanded. scared the crap out of me and that could have been a 1.5x 60'
Once again, no one said you didnt run a 11.3.... Although no one really knows what your mods are.
You ran a Charger in the second run.... Probably a RT model. No vette again.
An srt might have more peak power, but power under the curve is something completely different. All youve shown me is your car runs pretty good for the mods.... Nothing else.

lol, i didn't post that video for that charger. I posted it to show that the car trapped 122.8mph which a c5 Z06 would be lucky to get close that trap.
oh BTW: that was a "modded" (intake, catback) srt-8

HAHA I've done it before. I think I spun the wheels too much when I tried to cover them. I pulled out of the water box and my wheels were somewhat dry. Put her in 2nd and dumped the clutch around 6,000rpms and my whole dash started shaking. Said fuck it and pulled up not doing another burn out...no shit, that run to this day was my best 60'.
