Z06
I was driving home ( I live in the middle of nowhere) and a 5th Gen z06 pulled out of a neighborhood next to me. I was doing around 60 (speed limit was 65.) He gets next to me on the two lane road to attempt to pass me and honks 3 times. I pulled on him from 60 till about 110(it was REALLY close.) and then I pulled on him again from 20-110 by about 1 car length after we both slowed down and ran again. We stopped up the road and he asked me how I beat him. I told him how much i have invested in my motor(around 8K with the tune) and he said he didnt feel too bad anymore. I wish most Vette owners were that cool. His car was bone stock M6 2003 model Z06. I want one. Sounded bad ass even with stock exhaust.

Comp Cam, Headers, Cat Delete, Magnaflow 3" exhaust, 3.73's, full bolt ons, 3500 Yenk stall, and a tune. Dynoed @379 RWHP. Nitto D/Rs for rubber. I can usually keep up with Z06's if they have not been modded too heavily. They are nasty cars though I am surprised I beat him from a 60 roll

At 70k you needed a rebuild? Why? And you should of told the guy less. When he asked how much you spent im sure he meant performance wise. I dont consider a rebuild part of it.

My last car was a 6 speed and I spent a shit load on that car's transmission and never did get it right. It was fucked up when I got it, and it was even more fucked up when I got it fixed. I have had bad luck with these cars, but I haven't had any problems with this one since I got the motor rebuilt... Knock on wood
