We were approaching 140mph dude.



unfortunately I don't think it would be much different from a low roll. Don't get me wrong, I would love to find out for sure......but the vette is absolutely VICIOUS at low speeds. The aggressive trans gearing that the Z51 adds coupled with the low weight of the car, and the torque of the 6.2L V8 is enough to make unsuspecting victims crap their pants.

Hopefully when the car is back in my posession, I can drive up and we can do a little "testing" without Matt's big ass in the car just to find out. Don't forget, you got a wee bit of a jump on me in that vid. It's all good though!

whats up man! god I forgot you were even on here. 140 huh..... no wonder butt was puckered so hard!

I am certainly up for witnessing another run between the 2 cars....hopefully by then I'll one of my own to throw into the mix.
