^^^true so I took the liberty of finding the thread:

12.30 @111.69 all motor/street tires

And another:

12.68 @ 111.4 bolt-ons/stock tires

Like I said before the SC 370 WILL be a force at the track WITH supporting mods:

1.5way, coilovers, drag radials, (forgot about 4.08's earlier)

I just dont prefer it since expansion is so limited.

Well, I rolled into 60 and then hit it. You can start counting at 60 not at 55. Its hard to tell because the gearing on the z06 is plain ridiculous, so it is in its powerband in one gear till 90 (second) and then he shifts. I'm slower, but if you take into account 60-100, its not that far off. Like I said, I'm gonna try again soon...probably next week sometime.

Just do a 60-130 and compare it to online numbers. This link shows a stock C6 ZO6 at 7.8 seconds.

also on the videos if you stop them both at 60mph and stop them both at 110mph they are within a second of each other.

I say the Z06 would win but it wouldn't necessarily "dominate" the z.

I say this because of the dyno numbers that sc 370z are putting out.Rcz car is impressive but you can't just go by a speedo shot. I use to own a sc 350 and my numbers are higher than most of the sc 370z on a old car. You also have to take into account that a z06 traps over 120 all day long.

The gearing of the Z06 also makes it killer on the top end. Holding 4th until around 160mph. The Z won't even do 160 in stock form.

Is that because it is software limited? I have a hard time believing with its power numbers that it can't beat 160. E46 M3s, which have similar power and are heavier, can go around 180 with software limitation removed.

Edit: yes, the 370Z is software limited...

At what distance?
I am sure with a mile long the Z can hit it (160ish).

The 370Z is limited to 155, IIRC, but the CD and the power of the car lead me to belive that it would top out at around 160-165 if it weren't. It has near identical CD to a C5 corvette, and just a touch less power. Those top out at 170mph

^the Z is drag limited. it doesn't have a governor.

LateralG'z · 01-20-2011, 12:18 AM

^^^ don't think so, I have put mine over 160 on the speedo but I would believe there is a some amount of speedo error past 140. Need a bike next to me next time. Mine hits 150 pretty easily now.

Gunzero · 01-20-2011, 12:26 AM

the fuel would cut off if it had a limiter right?

Yes, it would just cut which most who have gone those speeds report it does not.

You are accelerating so slow at that speed that you wouldn't even feel the fuel-cut when it hit.

The car is governed to 157mph.
