Eh, it worked before. Those times are on par with the 04 z06's times. People are expecting in the 7'40's when the new c6 z06 comes out.

You need to redo the link. What you see in your post is what it put as the url... not a real link. (i.e. the "..." is shown in the link)

Looks like the new viper, I guess it handles well.
The times should be on par w/ the old Z06 - it's got exactly the same power (some might have expected more.)

C6 just keeps looking better and better, can't wait to see the stats on the new Z06

The C6 has a bit more ponies (it's underrated) and a better torque curve. BUT, it's still heavier than the Z06 and the Z-51 suspension is still a notch below the FE-4 of the Z06.

A cam and some LT headers on the new LS-2 will make sick power... the car will fly.

The new Z06 is going to be a supercar in every sense. Dave Hill is quoted as saying, "even your grandmother will be able to distinguish the C6 Z06 from a C6" The car is supposed to have an aluminum frame, carbon fiber widebody, dry-sump oiling, etc, etc.

Why doe you think the '04 Z06 got a carbon fiber hood? It was the first carbon fiber body panel to every be mass produced... GM was testing!
