This is exactly what I expected from you. Actually, I was expecting something more like "Hey guys, how do you race? thx."

Race where? A drag strip that's been prep'd? Is it a road course? Highway? Is it a regular C7 or the new Z06? Is it on OEM rubber or drag radials? Manual or automatic transmission?

Too many variables

What are the stakes? What do you gain by winning? Suggest breaking your car in before launch control starts if you have to prove something. I assume that you mean a drag race with a Z06. No contest and not worth the effort IMO. As impressive as the Z06 is, it cannot put down the power as well as the TTS from a stop.

Definitely wait 2K miles before beating on it. You will destroy a Z06 from a dig. From a roll I am not sure.

Turbo s will win but don't sleep on the A8 auto vettes. They launch incredibly well.
