Turbotrio Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Here are few track pictures of our customers black C6Z and GT500 "Super Snake" from Kilkare on Thursday/Saturday. Some of them didn't turn out half-bad so I figured I would toss a few up. If you didn't see it in the other thread the Z06 ran 9.7 @ 143 and the GT500 spun to a 12.5 @ 119 I think. Since we will have both cars until next year I am sure you will be seeing them at many local shows/events this summer http://ipsmotorsports.net/pictures/ChrisTrackResize1.jpg http://ipsmotorsports.net/pictures/ChrisTrackResize3.jpg http://ipsmotorsports.net/pictures/ChrisTrackResize4.jpg http://ipsmotorsports.net/pictures/ChrisTrackResize6.jpg http://ipsmotorsports.net/pictures/ChrisTrackResize8.jpg http://ipsmotorsports.net/pictures/ChrisTrackResize9.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff That is very impressive. I figured it was far from stock, but for running 9's it "looks" very streetable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the HRE's / Michelin's on the car he could easily drive it back to Texas if he wanted to Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, we will have both cars until next March when he is able to come back again for a few weeks He figured we could put them to good use at shows and such instead of just having them sit in a garage back in TX. Plus, we will be able to do little things he wants done as he gets bored over there and thinks of more things he would like done He thought he could get mid/low 11s out of the Super-Snake but it just spun the entire time. The CCW Drag-pack and much stickier tires should solve most of that problem. The headers and pulley and tune and other misc add-ons won't hurt either.

I know he was in alot heavier car that made more power than mine did. but just for reference i went 12.07@117 on nittos and 11.36@125 on et street bias plies with no other changes and only 445whp.. he should def have better times coming with that and stickier tires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably have both cars for another year since I'm assuming the guy is probably heading back to Baghdad. ..and the GT500 spun to a 12.5 @ 119 I'm assuming lack of traction is why it got a bad time.

This one has a 20" nitto 555r with little sidewall. It was skating all the way down the track. Put a 17" wheel on the rear with a good tire and it will go a good time. Plus he was alittle fast on releasing the clutch but I dont think he cared about it cause he was stoked on his C6Z pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stimmel1647545512 Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 I agree thats its too much $$ but you really arent buying the performance your buying the Shelby name if you ask me, someday these cars could be the million dollar barret jackson car.. who knows...so maybe its worth it from a collector standpoint.
