C5-R motor in a C5 Z06 'Vette

[smallfry0764]

Lol, if anyone watched the dyno vid of this car, they'd know it was a track car. THE WING IS NEEDED. This isn't your civic, this is a real car.

[TheGreenPander]

I bet that was 1/10 throttle.

[annabanna666]

ppl talk about wings like they are for fashion like chromes or a paint job or most body kits, but wings are for downforce ,they are a PERFORMANCE upgrade they have a job to do, so when ppl say shit like its to wide or tall or wateva they make themselves look stupid. who gives a fuck wat it looks like if it keeps u on the road at 200mph

[sladeD8]

I don't really like the park bench on the trunk but oh well.

[chazual88]

i see how a vette might need wing but its just a little to tall and wide in my opinion

[Maxpound]

I'm sure he needs a diffuser in the back as well.

[SCRex0472]

Well, I'm not a fan of the wing, but that one is still not big enough!

[IrishChris1979]

I love everything except the wing. "Electron Blue" is my all time favorite corvette color ever! I wish they still had it available when I bought my C6. Oh well.

[greasysnowball]

i LOVE his plate haha! "Whuuush"



[AHNAYAL8R]

He'll need Downforce...but c'mon it Does look kinda ridiculous

[hallis1]

Pretty sweet but i'd rather have the '59 Nomad that pulled out after him. :)

[TestaVette]

yea i notice the car even has a msi widebody, he looks like he tracks it

[MrSignal20]

The problem is the 'Wing' is too high. Corvettes' are "fast-backs," meaning the air travels faster down the rear-end than the front. He/she needs to lower the height of the 'Wing' to about half-way down the rear windshield.

[tyler111991]

i read somewhere that the C5 Rs motor is actually restricted down to 5.5 litres and that the ZR1 vettes make more power

[isthoed]

ya the c5r motor is badass, wish i had that car...

[mrhindmon]

The wing is terrible whether it serves a purpose or not.

[9works]

The crime here is not the wing, but the fact that lame ass ricers have ruined the "winged" look on cars so completely that all you people see a wing and think "rice", regardless of pedigree.

[Artuir82]

@9works - I wouldn't go so far to say this wing looks bad. GT wings on corvettes look fairly badass. No cheap aluminum bullshit here :)

[GranTurismoJunky]

@9works makes me second guess about putting one on my beloved RX7 :(

[porkpig350]

@9works dammm right..I wish you would need some sort of dyno proof to slap one on , that would screen all the wankers

[the3rdeye88]

that sounds mean...id like to see more of it

[UndrCvrC0p]

Race cars shouldn't be confined to racetracks XD

[specopdude]

@UndrCvrC0p yeah they should hahaha

[MegaTronn]

Where can I get a 427 C5R short block? I've been on GM Performance Parts and found nothing.

[srvbluesrip]

They are available through Jegs but they're getting very expensive. They want $8,200 for the block only.

[RAFTRACER94]

All the above dumasses commenting about the wing have no idea what time it is.....I know the car, I know the owner...there is no bling in that wing...it is there for a reason and it cost more than most ricers have in their cars. I guess my

[srvbluesrip]

Amen Daniel.

[kinggsalas]

WHY THE RICE?

[Herps85]

Its not rice when its functional.  Im guessing this guy road races.

[dslayer202]

amazing. wish I had that in my Vette. and screw yall. That wing is probably absolutely necessary during racing

[MrGrimR34p3r]

People don't seem to understand, wings have a purpose, and for that, it's sexy as fuck. This is a track car, not some douchebag's toy. Show respect. Assholes.

[TheRebuttle]

Nice Vette too bad it has a wing made for a Civic.

[oogiemaster]

Now I know where to put my drinks while working on this Vette!

[scarface115]

that could potentially be one of the best vettes i have seen, but that wing seriously needs to go.

[123jozef]

Bet the neighbors love that car... I can dig the Katech stuff, but that spoiler...

[speedygtp]

bet he gets good radio reception on that motherfucker

[zippyzo6]

These comments are priceless! hahahahahahha

[jshields14]

Kill yo motha fuckin self!

[stamp748]

bbalman, how do you knot he doesn't race the damn thing at the track?

[srvbluesrip]

This is a track car. It won the 2003 One Lap of America. I have posted videos of the car at Road America.

[bballman345]

damn please take off that retarded wing

[AsmodiusMKII]

lol i think he needs that because unlike ricers, he IS going to go need the downforce

[N2OHZOH6]

I'd rather slide out and die.

[AsmodiusMKII]

lol to each his own

[N2OHZOH6]

Haha. Best response ever.

[THEARMEDLIFE]

@AsmodiusMKII dont get me wrong im a chevy boy but i like all cars and all cars can benifit from down force and front end DF is just as important as rear DF also the term rice is ment to refer to useless nonfunctioning parts most offten installed by teenagers who don't know any better and buy FWD cars and think there fast but even them shity fwd cars do make DF @ 100mph the rearend of a tuned civic gets a lil shifty on the hyw however the gigantic plastic wings dont do shit for anyone do to flex

[alexgonick]

omg that vette is sick!!!
