Just curious. RCSB soon to be turbo.

Not a chance. The new Z06 makes more rwhp than that and weighs significantly less than you, and then add aerodynamics........ it'd be ugly.

I raced a Dodge Viper at the track. I took him real bad to right before the 1/8 than he left me like I was standing still. It was funny, I talked to the guy after the race and he was amazed. He said when I jumped him as bad as I did off the line he said he panicked and hit his rev limiter

Talk with Parish8. He can blow them away.....stock or modded.
He can guide you in the right direction.
Be ready to fork up some serious $$$$$$$ flow though!
I'm sure he may have a few extra parts to sell off to get you there.

I think you must be refereing to the old C5 Z06 which made about 360 RWHP. I had no problem running door to door with one of these on the highway and would blow their doors off from a dig.
The NEW C6 Z06 makes over 460 rwhp stock. Here there is no contest. A RCSB would have to be making 550 rwhp with 600 lb-ft to even keep it close.

The last time I was at the track I ran against a 2003 zo6. he got me off the line (he had a 1.9 60ft./ I had a 2.2) I realed him in at the top of the track, I think I beat him Im not sure, I forgot. But I remember realing him in at the top of the track. I was surprised that I was pulling him on the top end. I was only pushing 14psi. I would have killed him if I was running 20psi.
