I want one of those sooooo baaaaad.
11.6 sec quarter mi times...stock.
With the cam and slicks it would be a mid 10 sec car.
Rogue claims his Bonne pulls 3.9 sec to 60 but a stock Z06 runs 4.0 to 60 and does 1/4 in 11.6.
Rear wheel drive in a 3100 lb car with over 500 hp makes my palms sweat.
I swear, as soon as I get rid of these wallet sucking kids, I'll sell the Bonne, the Trans Am and the Formula and then go to the bank and borrow $25 K......
Then the wife and I can tour the country and own the highways. :P

While I certainly have never timed my 0-60 when I was asked for it I gave my approximation. I never claimed anything, its almost impossible to get an accurate measurement due to traction problems (something a RWD drive car does much better with). Based on various algorithms (again not an exact science) I have come up with the following:
0-60 = ((weight in kilograms) / (bhp * .9))
This works out in my case to about 4.19. I would say my estimate was close if not perfect.
Also you must factor in torque and I am pretty sure mine is higher 0-60 than a c6 although I obviously do not have the top end to compete.

V8 505hp N\A car have an advantage in that, and under 4 seconde its really short, so many thing can happen after only 4 second.
At a smaller scale, im as fast as a Mustang GT for half quarter mile(..sorry dunno how to spell the right word
)
but a mustang GT finish ahead of me at the end of the quarter by like 0 .3 to 0.5 at higher mph.
Im sure i do 0-60 as fast.
dunno if it continue your tought?
