So what's the trick to getting vettes to race, when I had my Cobra and LX it was a miracle to actually get one to do anything.

lol, fyi a 06-07 C6Z is cheaper than his car with blower. just lettin ya know.

25-40k is a shit ton?

I paid 30k for my 08 coupe in 2009 with 16k miles on it, and it made 650 rw.

Vettes dont hold value for shit because they are over priced and dealers give them away (the right ones do anyway)... so it's easy to pick up a nice one at a cheap price. Ask Steve, he looked for a while, he knows they are all over cheap as chips. I love Mustangs, but Id rather have a lightly used Vette for half the price (vs a Shelby, Id never be happy in a stock 5.0).

I guess i should have had you find me a 08+ vette auto with under 30k miles when I was looking last year for $30k or under. I couldn't find one anywhere modded or stock. I didn't really want a manual but I only found a couple of those in that price range. I looked for few months on all the forums ebay autotrader etc..

Here's how I did in the 1/8th against a c6z06 not my best pass but I was on a set of old 18's with drag radials. I was spinning some in first and both of the shifts spun pretty bad but it was a close race. With the instant hit of your PD blower you should get in the 10s pretty easily.
