Anyone know what the speed is on a Vette Z06 when the needle is nearly horizontal on the right side of the gauge?

140

that gallardo pulled, but the vette seems to hit 3rd gear and just blow past it.

to bad its street racing and they are morons.

It appears almost like the Gallardo driver hit the gas first, that's why the car jumps ahead for the first second or so. It's hard to tell from the vid though.

I thought it would be a little faster than that. Anyway, I think the needle was lower than horizontal judging by the video.

I've been to 140mph on the freeway in my old Mustang GT.

the Gallardo was honking, so i believe that the Gallardo owner obviously had the advantage of reaction time.

I don't know if you guys caught this, but each video is the same race just in different cars.

It looks like the Gallardo had at least a half second jump.

Its not that obvious

 

[GTaudiophile]

Can't beat the value of the Vette...but it'll never be the status symbol, the exotic, nor sound as good!

 

[MasterAndCommander]

Nothing I like better than seeing a good ol' pushrod LS7 on a 'vette with leaf spring suspension bitch-slapping an exotic than cost more that double. :thumbsup:

Wonder how they compare around a track.

Probably pretty close actually. Man, that Gallardo sounded sexy though!

yea, id venture a guess they would be very close, but if the course had a large straight, the vette would prolly spank it.

supposedly the Gallardo was modded, and you can tell the Z06 started in 2nd, but 1st would have spanked the crap out of the Gallardo.

The Z06 is modded as well. Look at the tail pipe.

its a REALLY fast shot... but that looks like the stock exhaust, just from a weird angle.

Too bad the vette's interior sucks balls like most American cars, but hey it is one helluva fast car for that price.
I'd love to buy/win/take/steal/borrow one!
Hmmm the Gallardo is a corner monster though. :thumbsup:

check this out. You might want to fast foward to the end, but it handles exeptionaly well. This is just a regular C6 in this video so just imagine what the Z06 could've done.

LOFL..."vietnamese suspension" LOFL

I agree; there is something about the sound of an Italian engine that is straight up sexy.

For your listening pleasure.

Comments like this are reserved only for people who can afford such cars and drive them.

The same could be said if I were to say the opposite then eh?

If you look closely, there are only two tailpipes. That means to me that he must have an aftermarket exhaust and maybe some other mods to it. But at least we know its an aftermarket exhaust.

Stock Z06 has 4 tailpipes

but too bad I get to see it's ugly Interior.

personally, interiors are overrated. i sat in a porsche 911 at the philly auto show and was less than impressed. i really dont understand how everyone can complain. as long as the controls and seating are ergonomic and comfortable, i could really care less about what the dash is made of.

Sounds like bad shiftings on the gallardo's drivers part killed it for them. Perhaps it would be a little better with an egear trans.

bah.. -_-;
