He's a lot smarter now when it comes to street racing.

Street racing is for stupid kids who don't think ahead about the possible consequences and what could happen. You're either a juvenile or have the maturity of one to disagree.
But it is fun to bust y'all out and call you on it. The OP was just posting a video. He didn't need a bunch of girly men giving him a piece of their minds....

.... except that "a piece of our minds" is exactly what he asked for until he started getting feedback he didn't like, after which he went back and edited that part out of his post.

Note that the Z06 can be tweaked to add quite a bit of horsepower without even going the supercharger route....but the Shelby GT500 is quite a bit less expensive if you just go by sticker price.

Both are really great cars.

I can't watch the video. As long as they were out where nobody else was around etc. then fine but for cars that can reach insane speeds within the distance of a city block, anything around others is just asking for manslaughter charges.
Why can you not watch the videos?

All races were filmed at midnight on an empty highway...in Mexico.n

Well, we all well know that ANY of us out here with some power have used it illegally at some point in time. Even the Police do.......it ain't no big deal. You don't have to lie about it in this thread.

Street racing is a big deal. It gets people killed. If you just have to race, take it to the track or you're a stupid-ass punk. Those are you two options.

They don't have many county roads that are flat and over five miles long with no houses in Chicago. You'll see all the blackmarks.....

If you lose it, you'll end up out in a cornfield, not a concrete wall full of people behind it.

I wouldn't do 125 MPH either in bumper to bumper traffic........

Not Chicago either, no worries.....

You sound like a putz who grinds gears in his rice burner.
