[s-cars] Dragstrip day

[Taka Mizutani]

I'm not questioning that you did it, I'm just surprised that you beat it.
Are you sure it was a C6 chassis
Z06, the 2006 model with the 7.0L LS7 and 500hp? Easy to tell, has the
rather unique split 5-spoke design,
small intake duct in the nose for the airbox, gigantic 6-piston brakes in
the front and 4-piston in the back,
and brand spanking new (I didn't even know they were out yet). They run
close to 12 flat at sea level, 1.5 sec. penalty
at altitude is a lot.

I can see a C5 getting beaten by your car, esp. w/ 442whp.
