    you people keep talking about break in period. yes you car will go faster 6 months after you own it then it did the first day you got it.

    thats not what we are talking about. we are talking about 8 almost 9 years of wear.

    the simple act of driving the car brakes it down over the years. taking good care of it will prolong its life but it still is subject to heat and friction.

    finally someone that isnt a fucken retard.

    no matter how well you take care of an engine the wear and tear eventually get to it after the years. this dosent just go for an american car. talk to anyone with a Ferrari from teh 90's early 00's. they just simply arent the car they used to be. this is just how it goes. i cant believe you people are arguing this fact.

    just to see if we can bring the HP to even 500. :D
    your talking about replacing shit. im talking about grinders engine as it stands now. it couldnt do the lap time around the nurburgring that you posted.

Corvette comes with mobil 1 and chevy recomends mobil 1 so assuming that previous owner used mobil 1 since day 1 that cars internal engine parts should still look new and it should produce the rated peak HP.
    Now FYI assumng that engine is in grate shape what makes the car to show less HP on a dyno is one or all of the reasons below.

    Dirty air filter, dirty fuel filter, old exhaust system, bad or faulty MAF sensors, bad or faulty O2 sensors, worn clutch and many other reasons that I can't think of top my head.

    False again 10 seconds per lap and say 9 laps for easy math=1.30 seconds = you'll never see it.

    and false, you will see the z06 almost the whole time. it would very slowly pull away during the race due to the horse power. if what you say is true, the z06 is a piece of shit because it pulls away at the very beginning and then it cant pull away anymore to make a bigger gap. lol
