Lightbulb

One mistake in there though, at one point they claim that the 159mph pass was the highest trap speed by a Z06 ever and that is not true...Paul Major has gone almost 200mph in his 2001 Z06. Perhaps they meant C6 Z06 though like they'd specified with the other records set by those two cars.

Well...one other major qualifier...their Z06 still has it's IRS while Paul's does not...so they can still go get the groceries, just like BoweryBoy....Uh-oh, I hope Mike/Stealth doesn't read that one.

Hmmm, and an automatic to boot. I always knew a Z06 auto would flat fly.

you can put plates on an AA/FD ,buy a sticker and have a "valid" car but its far from legal. maybe the car i saw getting gas was different than the one youve seen. the gas cap must pass inspection,they test them

if someone passes inspection, has a valid registration as well as plates its street legal in my book, otherwise there are a ton of cars that I know of that shouldn't be on the road for various reasons (nitrous, no cats, etc)..
