How was it possible to tell that that was a Z06? I guess the regular vettes simply can't go that fast

Dunno if that was Z06 or ZR1. Either way you here it for a second and it's gone. That's about as fast as the 1200 hp skyline in the tunnel doing a fly by. this clip was the guys doing 80 ish and the Skyline got up to 205 on the run.

Daaaamn that was fast! And apparantly that's the Autobahn, so perfectly legal there. I have got to go there with the Camaro at some point. I love that he sorta have this exasperated scared whimper at the end of the vid.

That would be soooooo coool. Maybe swing something out in west Texas. Oh yeah. There actually already is one even out in west Texas that's like a couple hundered mile run. All closed off and legal as can be.

Those video are freakin sick!

Almost unreal that a car can go that fast. I thought when I went 126 mph as a dumb kid that I was going fast.
