Ugly indeed

I sold this one but it would run with you. Completely replaced the suspension with a fully adjustable Pro Touring set up. Ran every weekend in the SoCal canyons with Vettes, Porsche’s and everything else imaginable. I love this pic...flat as a pancake with 305/35’s rolled under to the sidewall on Mulholland.
Made a lot more power than your Vette as well.
One-off ADV.1 wheels. 22x10 at 26lbs each with way more brakes than anyone needs. Those are 16” rotors with 8 piston calipers up front. 15”/4 piston out back
Don’t just assume because it’s a truck that it can’t perform. I spent over $100K making sure that one could handle just about anything that came along. Don’t let the fact it’s a truck fool ya...it’s 100% a road racer with a bed.

Ya that rendering looks so smooth with great lines.....the actual looks like the parts were all afterthoughts.
My bro-in-law is 6'6", he used to drive an older Celica.....was hilarious watching him crawl out of it lol
I’m 6’7” and can’t fit comfortably at all in my best friends C7 Z06 and I wouldn’t want to modify one just to fit.
And I’ve built several trucks that would rape a 650hp C6...in a straight line or around a corner. lol

I'm in no way questioning your ability to build very fast trucks but I seriously doubt they would be able to run with a very well modded C6 or C7 vette... The new ZO6 is one of the fastest production cars ever tested at the "ring" and the new ZR1 is going to be faster. There's no way to build a "truck" that is capable of what those vettes can do on a real track.
I believe on a tight track like Lime Rock there's simply no way that "truck" could run consistent lap times that my vette can run. Those lap times also have a lot to do with the driver abilities...
In any event nice to know you're cranking out some very fast "trucks"...
In Sport Autos' hands, the Z06 did a 7:13.9, which is very quick, nearly as quick as an AMG GT R that they tested. We'd imagine that if it were equipped with the eight-speed automatic and had GM's 'Ring Wizard (official title) Jim Mero behind the wheel, that the Z06 could be somewhere below a 7:10.
