This was on my street tune which makes about 30 less than my track tune. I don't know what his mods were if any but it wasn't overly loud or anything. It had aftermarket wheels/ brakes but probably not much else. Should I be encouraged or discouraged? Lol! We were pretty much dead nuts even after the initial hit.

Vettes are high to mid 11 sec cars stock. On the hwy the weight and aero advantage is huge. Id say be proud. It probally wasnt stock.

Incorrect.
With a good driver, stock C6 Z06's can be rowed to 10.90's. Ranger did many times to prove it could be done. If it was modded like cam and exhaust, you would have got walked on the big end.
Z06 > ANY mustang.

Stock tires? I can see it with tires but that must have been a hell of driver mod. LOL New shelbys seem to pick on them and the V's. I saw one on the Dyno at PRT's and it made 510 on a mustang dyno with exhaust tune cam.

New Shelby's SHOULD pick on them given the almost 140 hp advantage (guessing that from parasitic loss the new GT500's are putting 640 to the ground of the 668 advertised hp).
Modded 5.0 vs Z06 (even c5 with nothing major), the Z06 will be either dead even or walk it on the top end

Definitely 1/4 they would be close....once a Z0 hits top of 3rd it's nasty
Rumor has it that recently in Mexico there was a test performed....the Z06 fared rather well...

Zemog, would have loved to help, I love looking at cars...
C6 LS3 car is the buy right now... 80% of the performance vs a Z stock and a good 10-15 grand less. Friend sold his 08 last month for like 25-26k.
