I'm amazed this thread is still alive, I haven't checked it in a while. This video was never intended to be a evo vs. Z06 debate. Fact of the matter is I think with enough money you could modify just about any pos to beat the corvette in the 1/4. I just thought you might enjoy seeing a video of your car.

Truth is my dad actually has a C6 Z06, I drive an evo. We've always been very competitive, problem is he makes alot more money than I do. The evo is a great platform for me to beat him on a budget, and when the track opens I'm sure I will. For now that is, he's agreed to hold off headers and cam work untill I have a chance to race him. Once he does that I'm pretty much screwed and a larger, laggier turbo will be the only thing that will make me faster again. That's something I'm not willing to do.

One thing that should be taken into consideration when comparing these two cars is most evo's that are faster than a Z06 are using a GT35r or larger turbo. That turbo on the 4g63 motor won't make power untill at least 4000rpm. That would be a horrible daily driver imo, and zero fun to drive.

It just didnt make any sense to me why you quoted that quote from another forums thread.

so two cars race.

people here comment on race.

I qoute one of the racers.

Levi thinks a comment from one of the drivers serves no purpose.

???????

levi, if we use your logic, then ESPN should never talk with a player after a game.



quoted that quote from another forums thread
you do realize the vid was also taken from another forum don't you?

yes it was copy and pasted from there.

the qoute is on 5-6 forums.

not really sure why the need to call names, .......but if you some how feel that makes you come off looking better, GO FOR IT.

Japan is taking the U.S auto market and tech market I think.
