Enjoy op:

The Z06 was shifting quite slow from 2nd to 3rd, he just didn't want to grind/miss 3rd again, so he took his time. My belt was slipping at the top of 3rd and seemed to be most of 4th, so maybe his slow shift and my belt slipping evened things out? :shrug:

You can hear the belt slippage in the video. The whine of the Eaton doesn't increase in pitch as the speeds build, it actually stays the same and then decreases near the top of 4th, not sure how much power I was losing.

I'm thinking the cause of my belt slip may had been the coolant that was spraying out of the filler cap onto the belt.

After the runs I saw a mist on my windshield and wondered what it was, opened my hood and it was pretty wet in there; the shop that did my blower swap overfilled the coolant by a good bit. I drained some coolant and no longer have that problem, or belt slip so far from what I can tell. Yeah I know, excuses excuses!

Oh yeah, I'm still on the stock clutch at 41,800 miles, pullied since 5k.
It seems to be holding fine :shrug:




That C6 Z06 is an awesome car. It's like the T1000 in "Terminator 2", all advanced technology and fancy shmancy, I guess it was sent from the future to terminate the Terminator.

C6 Z06 vs. Hydroshutter's '03 KB'd Cobra, coming soon. :coolman:

Would love to see those two run at each other on the strip. That would make for a good race.

Thats Termin8tor, the sprayed Camaro. That car was actually on Ebay up for bids.

The 03-04 SVT Cobra are commonly refered to as Terminators.

thats one of the lamest and funniest excuses ive ever heard, the o'l "my belt slipping" trick huh? bwahahahaaha im gonna start saying that when ever i lose a race too and my car is not even supercharged. this video just shows how much faster z06's are compared to slowbras even if the slowbra has 100 more whp.

well the cobra is also 400-500 lbs heavier and that makes a world of difference. I do agree that the excuses are B.S., dont race your friggin car on camera unless it is 100% go to go, because you will get flamed for excuses.
