Not sure. I would like to do some straight line runs between my ZL1 and a few F10s.

Hello. I'm interested in the drive on Sunday.

I scrolled back a few posts and didn't see anything about the route. Generally, is there an area where you do this? (i.e. north of Brookshire, or southeast of Galveston.)

And..for about how many hours?

Thanks. Hope to be able to make it!


- VM

Not sure the route will be posted. It's an OPSEC thing.

Not so much here. Running off road at 100 mph plus, cracked windshield, sandblasted front end, etc. No more.

You were driving 100mph off road, or you inadvertently went off the road?

We also confirmed that my stock 580 hp ZL1 cannot out run the M6 GC. We did a few roll runs and the M Pulls away fast. By the time my Auto tranny downshifts it too late.

My girlfriend and I had the same suspicion. Suspicion that the M5 runs harder. The ZL1 needs to be pullied to run with the F10 M5.

Ran the M3 And he had a similar jump but was dealt with immediately. But not the M6 GC. It jumped and it was gone.

The M5 and M6 are fast I kept getting left behind when they took off luckily there was enough traffic for me to catch up Not like it would make a difference but let me fix my CEL issue in the M3 and I'd like another run.
