Default So what if a chevy showed up for Viper Days

Here is John Page at the wheel of a very fast Z06. I was working support and they were concerned. In this session they stacked the deck. They put the two fastest Competition Coupes from the unlimited class in front and behind him.

After John took off I went down to the end of the straight and shot some stills.

Enjoy

I've shown up for the past two years at VIR for Viper Days to instruct. The Viper can be passed just like any other car, nothing special about it, especially the ones w/o ABS.

The Z06 was a 21st Century Musclecars Z06. It had about 560rwhp, LG Coilovers, Pfadt Sways, Brembo Brakes. It was rumored the red.white and bue Comp Comp had 750hp. The z was hitting 165+ on the main straight.


The mods to this car are a RR package that 21CMC sells. I worked support/photographer for John Page owner of 21CMC

hhmmm, interesting. thanks for the info. not a lot road racing around my area so needless to say it's not my strong point. i did build a Nissan GT-2 engine for a guy who raced support at the champ car race in my town last summer, but R.R. not my bread & butter.
