Those who knows road racing in America always says one thing: get a Corvette. And as much as we want to deny it, it's probably the truth. Our friend Ryan Matthews from After Dark Speed competed with us all year with his C5Z, keeping us company, until at Road America he grabbed victory with a new SM record. It's a simple, yet extremely effective package.

Ryan Matthews if I'm not mistaken formerly worked at Detroit Speed, very talented engineer and driver, I watched them compete at an OUSCI event about five years ago and he was crucial part of that team. Seems like humble guy but he's loaded with knowledge. If you're into corvettes and you want to go fast he's got to be one of the best at it. I don't own a Corvette but without a doubt I would love to build a similar one.

@h2junkey 4 года назад

Yup, he used to work at Detroit Speed. He along with Danny Popp, knows his way around a Corvette.

@Ryan 9638 Agreed. c5 z06 in good condition can be had for 20k. 0-60 in 4 flat and all that cornering grip is nothing to scoff at for 20k. A few bolt ons and you are pushing 500 hp in a sub 3200 pound vehicle. Also modern tires, suspension, and brakes will make it corner even harder. That's one heck of a weapon for cheap.

I got super lucky, got a 99 FRC with 4900 miles. Previous owner never drove it and then also never put oil in the car so he did what idiots do and he blew the motor. I bought the car for $800, less than 5k miles on the chassis and I got a fix roof coupe for $800!!! So I did the LQ9 swap, an iron block 6.0, she’s making right at 611 to the wheels on pump gas, naturally aspirated. I AutoX it just about every weekend, never have to leave 1st gear lol. But the look of mine and this one are fairly similar. Carbon canards everywhere, I have wider fenders because I have 315-35-17 square on 17x10.5. Just absolutely grip for days. I know the z06 had 325 in the back but honestly I can take an on ramp doing 144mph and not break loose with this setup. This is such a great platform for all kinds of motor sports. I know someone that drifts their c5 hatch, of course drag racing, road racing, autocross, they’re so overengineered in the best way possible.

@HardwiredZ06 Год назад

That is such a cool car man. I don't know what it is, but last year or so just get lots of positive comments on my c5 whenever I take it out. I don't think people see too many c5z's on the road anymore so kind of treat when they see them nowadays especially with several newer generations out now flooding the roads. I believe these cars will def increase in desirability as they approach 25-30 years old and many of them retired. I don't intend to let mine collect dust in a garage or sit with mechanical issues at that age.

@trashbandit2449 Год назад

@@l6echo53 they're a mostly similar platform, so it really depends on your budget. A c6z comes stock with the LS7 and a dry sump oil system, but if you're good with putting all that in a c5z, you might save a little money. They will probably come out at about the same cost, so I'd just get a c6z

@wesleybeeson1818 3 года назад

Hood on a sec. destroked and still makes 590 to the wheels?! Do you mean 590 at the flywheel? That’s crazy

@sepg5084 3 года назад

590 to the wheel is max power, de-stroked motors can make that power if they are setup to rev higher. As per the owner, it revs to 8000 rpm.

@JesusismyRedeemerandLord 4 года назад

Why was it de-stroked? Does that have to do with regs?

@jarrodflood1353 4 года назад

Would be so it can rev as high as it does, an engine with a long stroke will put a lot of stress on the conrods at high rpm.

@wesleybeeson1818 3 года назад

Yep. Keeps revs up on the course
