Dallas to El Paso, about 600 miles, in 8 hours. 1 stop for food, petrol, etc.

Not quite as high as RC's average, but I am sure his front end is more stable than mine at 130+. Oh I also had the wife sat next to me (kept 'reminding' me of speed limits)

I have a blurry pic (you cant really tell if I was doing 130 or 140MPH due to blurriness) if anyone wants me to post or STFU

doesnt' the Z06 have Xenons? at 106mph youre out driving your lights, with an avg of 103, he technically was fine..at average but his higher speeds he would have needed some 175 watt rally lights
Well - I didn't ctually drive faster than the pool of light.. - so "outdrive" is a misnomer..

And - no Xenon is a C6 and yuppie beamer thing...
HAHA, the Xenons in my families 'yuppie' beamers, i'd give my left bollock for. In my car, when dipped driving at 90mph on duel carrigeways you cant see shit! in the dark is fuckin dodgey on stock bulbs.
