Z06

[JeffKeryk]

An ex co-worker just touched base after a few years. Last we spoke she was going through a divorce; 2 young kids. She is very good, in fact a star, at what she does, programming, analytics and such. Beautiful girl, raising 2 kids and excelling, as usual. Santa Clara grad...

She told me she bought a 2016 Z06 a few years back. I told her that's a 650 HP, 10 second, 1.2G Supercar. Sheesh.

Nice car but it’s not as fast as a Model S Plaid in the quarter mile.

Maybe not, but after that first quarter the Plaid would be but a fading image in the rear view of the Corvette.

Dave was just messing with him because Jeff is our resident Tesla fanboy. But you are wrong, the Plaid will walk a Z06 out past 180 mph by many car lengths.

You can refill the Z06 fuel tank and get going again much faster than recharging any Tesla.

Not if the drive involves either corners or braking. Also, the Tesla wouldn't run to 180 mph for very long without going into limp mode, while the Corvette could do it all day long, or at least as long as it had fuel remaining.

Not the point

Smart lady, I would take a Z06 over a Tesla also.

I think she can buy whatever she wants.

Good for her. I'm likely to buy the Z06 I've posted about in my C7 thread. It will be our milder (but still fun) sportscar.

 

[JeffKeryk]

She sent me a pic... She takes it to the Sonoma race track on occasion.

Meanwhile her ex is probably living in a one room roach motel somewhere driving a janky Kia only getting to visit the kids 2 days a month and paying $10,000 a month in child support.

Wow! How 'bout her pic too?

She brings home the coin, trust me. Probably $250K, or more. $300K wouldn't surprise me. Plus options... If anything, she pays him. She doesn't need anyone. What I always admired about her was, she made the tough decisions in life. And was willing to follow through with them.

You'd go crazy. But no, I won't go that far.

Especially after a hot run!

M3 and M4 Competition are nice cars.

 

[John Galt]

A +1 to JHZR2’s idea for the post hot run pix. Tee shirt wet and clingy and short pants.

I'm sure she is smokin hot just like the z06..

She is very pretty, but more than that she is a really good person, very thoughtful and a good mother. She and her kids raise and train seeing eye dogs.
