"We're still buzzing over the Z06's ferocious 3.4-second burst to 60 mph." that is an exerpt from caranddriver.com the 2006 Corvette Z06 gets to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds http://www.caranddriver.com/comparisons/11103/2006-chevrolet-cor vette-z06.html

FastestLaps 27/01/07, 10:49:48
Lots of cars can reach 60 mph faster than it's written in official specifications. Still it's better to stick with official performance data.

Z06 29/01/07, 22:06:43
Power is 505 HP SAE certified. Or 512 PS or DIN HP if you prefer. Reference http://www.chevrolet.com/corvette/specifications/#engine

FastestLaps 29/01/07, 22:28:08
OK power is now 505. And that 7:42.9 @ Nordschleife is very very impressive. I deleted old time.

Z06 09/02/07, 16:30:47
Z06 0-60 mph is 3.7 s and should be corrected: http://media.gm.com/us/chevrolet/en/product_services/ r_cars/r_c_corvette/index.html

Z06 09/02/07, 16:34:28
Z06 top speed: "a top speed of 198 mph (as recorded on Germany’s Autobahn)". That is 318.65 km/h so we should have 198 mph (319 km/h). http://media.gm.com/us/chevrolet/en/product_services/ r_cars/r_c_corvette/index.html

Heyhuub 09/02/07, 16:43:04
Links aren't working. And by the way Z06, you'r just nitpicking now, afraid other cars might be stated as being faster?

FastestLaps 09/02/07, 16:43:11
Z06 you'r such a bastard :D I changed top speed to 319 kmph. But if we change Z06's 3.9 to 3.7 we also need to change 997T's 3.7 to 3.4.

FastestLaps 09/02/07, 16:44:06
delete that additional space character in links and they will works. It's temporary technical problem. I will make all the links clickable today.

Georg 09/02/07, 17:09:53
nickpicking a little bit too... at the high speed test 2006 the Z06 reached only 315km/h = 197mph and the Z06 was 1.1s slower at 300km/h as the 997 Turbo :-p http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hy7LZWnCUI

Z06 09/02/07, 18:51:46
Just decide which top speed you want: manufacturer's or officially tested? I will contact FastestLaps directly, you guys are just behaving like kids. Here is my last words to you: I own a 2006 Z06. I drive it on the race track against street legal cars and so far I always won. This is what matters to me.

Georg 09/02/07, 19:03:41
you don´t get it? I jump on you at every Z06 topic..because you fight die hard the 7:42.99min time vs 911 Porsche... If the Z06 does 200 or 199 or 198 or 202..who cares? I am not..it is a great car.. best bang for buck...

Heyhuub 09/02/07, 19:16:23
Currently i'm holding to the mmanufactururs claim of the cars.

Ferrarista 10/02/07, 19:31:15
Hey! I write link for Zo6 at Gratan but your system do no list it in car page. This link: http://www.caranddriver.com/comparisons/11103/2006-chevrolet-cor vette-z06.html

FastestLaps 10/02/07, 19:51:57
That's because someone had added lap time for Gratan before and without source. I deleted old one and now everything's OK.

Ferrarista 10/02/07, 20:31:05
But why you accepte time record without link?

FastestLaps 10/02/07, 20:42:15
Until now posting lap times without source link was possible. But it's going to change.

Sleeper 12/02/07, 02:03:01
Here is the link for all the Top Gear times: http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/show/powerlaps.shtml The Z06 time shows no ref, even after I added the lap again with ref (??)

Georg 13/02/07, 17:17:01
the second Oscherslebentime was taken at a direct compare between F430, Zo6, 997Turbo, GallardoSE At this test the GallardoSE was the fastest the F430 the second the Z06 the third and the 997 Turbo the fourth. Between the first and the last was less than a second (0.9s)

Clay Garland 24/04/07, 02:19:38
It's not going to happen, so I'm not going to bother with timeslips, but the Z06's 0-60 time is actuall 3.4.

Heyhuub 24/04/07, 20:39:40
No it isn't, that was just tested by road and track, it's official time is 3.7. Other wise you could change the 997 turbo time to 3.2 seconds

Clay Garland 25/04/07, 05:33:14
All Magazines use different testing methods, Motor Trend uses car mounted devices with imprecise accelerometers. GM's official stance says 3.7, and GM is ALWAYS conservative. Hell, edmunds had the 0-60 time as 4.5 seconds. Give me a break. When I ran this time, we use a laser timing device, every millisecond, it sends a beam to the back of the car and recieves the beam back and the differrential between one pulse to the next determines speed. Assuming that the Z06 is about 170 feet from the timing device when it hits 60, that's probably a little high, and given that the speed of light is aapproximately 983,500,000 feet per second, the time that a pulse would take to travel from the device to the car and back would be 0.00000035 seconds, give or take a few hundred millionths. That means, that the maximum that my measurement could be off is twice that, or 0.00000070 seconds. I think my measurement is better. Plenty of factors can affect 0-60 times, my tires were warmed up, but I did not burn out to improve the time. It was unccharacteristically cold on that day, about 40 degrees in October. Simple fact is, until you come with something better than that, quoting magazines ain't going to cut it.

Heyhuub 25/04/07, 19:05:15
Currently we are using factory times, I allready suggested a feature to implent tested times.

FastestLaps 25/04/07, 22:05:49
It is very hard to proove that you actually tested that car's acceleration and get that 3.4 seconds. Magazines, however are pretty credible lap time and performance data source.
