This was my daily driver for six years! I bought this 2008 Corvette Z06 in Dallas Texas in July of 2018. I went to Dallas to purchase a 2008 Viper from a place called Texas Hot Rides. When I got there, they had the Viper sitting next to this Z06. I drove them both, and I liked the Z06 better in every way. I love Vipers, but this particular Z06 had a huge cam, aftermarket heads, roller lifters, complete aftermarket exhaust and was making around 650hp. It was faster than the Viper, easier to drive, and $10K less expensive. Kind of a no-brainer. Anyway, I brought the Z06 home and had Ragin' Racin' out of Scott, Louisiana rebuild the engine because a few lifter rollers had failed. They added higher compression heads, Johnson link bar roller lifters, and a new tune, so now it makes about 670hp. (575rwhp on dyno)

Thank you! On a prepped track and slicks, that damned thing will do 0-60 in 2.8 seconds and the quarter mile in 10.4 @ 143mph. 670hp in a 3050 pound car is a bit scary... even after you "get used to it". The pucker factor never goes away when you are hammering it. New C8 owners are astounded when I pull away from them in an old C6. LOL

This is exactly why I have a 4 camera dash cam in both vehicles that record 24/7 and also have Wifi so I can see them in real time (if I am close enough).
I also park in far corners of parking lots when I'm out in public or at work. I avoid Walmart unless it's life or death.
 
That is definitely a girl's Corvette! Convertible Stingray. I am glad she is still enjoying her fast cars no matter her age. I plan on driving stupid fast cars until I can't physically do it anymore or I'm dead. :)
