Re: Non modded photos of my Z06! GM rules!

The best I've nailed as launching is a technique...is 4.0 ..the car could do better....Just takes me practicing....a lot! Launching with a sixty foot under 2.0 is hard to accomplish..IMHO Thats the best I could do to date...Just a quick chirp and go seems to be the best formula for me ...Much faster than the more dramatic sliding side to side...where the sixty foots go to around 2.4....

Guys with the same mods have hit 10.97 @ 124mph traps..(on drag radials)

I haven't gotten down to englishtown in years...so I can't tell you...

Its not just the improvement in zero to whatever but the power upgrade throughout all speeds thats most apparent...

The car pulls very very well. Shoots out of the corners very nicely..

I'm pleased with this sports car...

I'm sure there are faster cars...yet this ones suiting me just right!


465flywheel hp...445 lb/ft of torque in 3100 lbs of Steel and composite plastics! Solid as a rock...Not a rattle in sight...

Really a great car (and the insurance is cheap as hell too! Go figure?)

GM and the corvette team did a great job!

Re: Non modded photos of my Z06! GM rules!

Its a new product from www.autogeek.com called Pinnacle and wolfgang. (the new product)

For any one interested..here was the process:

was a pretty simple process.

Wash the car as usual..

Then I took the Wolfgang body cleansing bottle...squirted the liquid onto the supplied...terry cloth pad..wiped it around the car...

Then wiped it off..

Then I took the other bottle of Wolfgang liquid...and put it on another terry cloth pad...wipped it around the car..

The wiped it off..(as instructed by Autogeek.com)

Waited 12 hours. with the car in the garage.....or till this morning...put on the pinnacle wax...(from a jar..not a liquid) Goes on easy....and then wiped it off before heading out to NYc..

Came home and dam if the car isn't glowing!!!!!


I'm telling you guys...This wolfgang/pinnacle stuffs amazing...



Impressed the hell out of me . I really like the glowing new car look...

Hell. I think it looks better than when new.

Re: Non modded photos of my Z06! GM rules!

TO ALL GMI'ers: Never ever ever use a terry cloth or regular towl on your vehicle. IT WILL LEAVE MICRO-SCRATHES and SWIRL MARKS!!!!! ONLY USE MICROFIBER TOWELS. I cannot stress this enough. They do not scratch your paint because they have thousands of fibers per square inch. You can get a pack of 8 microfiber towels at WALMART for $5. And the best ones cost no more that $50 for a pro kit. If you care for your car don't use anything else trust me.
