Awesome idea for topics Nth!!!

Wet weight of Z06
I scan this out of EVO. They weighed the Z06 with all fluids and a full tank of fuel and got 1443kg. They also calculated the power to weight ratio according to the measured weight.

Some more 0-60mph performance times -
Motor Trend - 3.5 seconds "We bolted our own test equipment to a car at GM's Milford Proving Ground and found it had grunt enough to hurl this 3147-pound coupe to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds" http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...z06/index.html Car and Driver - 3.6 seconds (October 2005) "A few days after our trip, we took a Z06 to GM's Milford proving ground and tested it. It ripped to 60 mph in only 3.6 seconds, hit 100 in 7.9, and 150 in 17.5." http://www.caranddriver.com/roadtest...z06-page2.html Car and Driver - 3.4 seconds (December 2005) "We're still buzzing over the Z06's ferocious 3.4-second burst to 60 mph. That's two-tenths quicker than the Z06 we tested in October." http://www.caranddriver.com/comparis...vette-z06.html *The Car and Driver bit from October also has 0-100mph and 0-150mph times |
There will be a complete french test of the Z06 in 10 days by a very serious belgium-french magazine, can't wait for the results :wink:
