Found this site with gearing info/calculator

http://xse.com/leres/z06/calculator.html

2007 Z06 gearing 2003 Cobra
1st 2.66 2.66
2nd 1.78 1.78
3rd 1.30 1.30
4th 1.00 1.00
5th 0.74 0.80
6th 0.50 0.63

3.42 rear end gears for the z06. Rear tires
325/30/19
The gearing is incorrect when you click on 2007 Z06. Cool calculator either way.

I have encountered 2 c6 zo6's and wasted both of them. All from a roll since I have no traction below 3rd. Car makes more than 500rwhp makes peak at 7k and has 3:50 gears with a tko750 so its long legged. Helps car weighs 2880 with me and a full take of gas also. Could have been shitty vette drivers who knows.

First one seemed stock and I walked him 3 times. Second one was lowered and had a nasty exhaust we raced 3 or 4 times and he definitely gave me a run. Yes I went to top of 4th which is around 150-160. Car feels slow as balls now though time for some changes

damn..whats the gear ratio like compared to the cobra t56?
My 3rd takes me to 110, 4th not sure never been out of it. this is with 3.23 gears
