We've all see people blow motors on a dyno. Blowing it during a race would be way better. Plus you may not blow it anyways and could still dyno.

Also when you get your built block in and re-tune the car for more power/boost we'll want to see dyno plots then. seeing how it stacks up vs a modded z06 is more interesting

I love the idea of a MSM taking a Z06, but I honestly don't see it happening. I AM curious about how close it'll be.
I've not been in a C5 Z06, but I have driven/ridden in a C6 Z06, and it could really lay down the power AND it was much easier to modulate the throttle. My Miata is hopeless at getting power to the ground. :(

Is there a reason this race hasn't happened yet?

Switched to a turbonetics evo spring now at 26.2 psi and going now to shim this bitch and turn up the boost more. I cant wait to show you girls the video . I will say this: my brakes are slipping now trying to brake boost at this level and timing

Video will be epic, hopefully your motor holds up.
