Default c5 vs me

Had about 4 runs with a c5 tonight. Not sure if it was a z06 or not, but prob not from the results. Anyone know exactly how to tell if a c5 is a z06 or not? He looked/sounded stock.

My best run I pulled 2 cars on him.

The other times I pulled a car to 1/2 a car because he started a split second first.

A few observations, it was about as fast as e46 m3s I have raced in my evo maybe a little faster.
The cayman s (my bros car) is slightly faster than the c5 based on the results.

Questions, comments or concerns?

I have 340 whp, 05 evo8 with following mods: tbe, intake, IC, with piping, mbc, exhaust mani, flash.

If it sounded stock, then it probably wasnt a Z06. Theyre LOUD stock. And a Z06 wouldve taken you though im pretty sure it was a stock C5. Maybe an automatic one?

Lol well it wouldnt be a coupe if it was a Z. Although it could be a FRC and not be a Z like in my sig. Usually look for the lower vent, non-coupe window but thats pretty much it.

stock c5 z06's lay down on average 350whp/350wtq, weigh less than the Evo, and have way better gearing, and WAY better coefficient of drag - they trap 115-118mph stock...i doubt you ran into a z06...

340whp with those mods is pretty spectacular, what dyno was it on? you dont have cams?

nice kills

opps forgot to include cams. I have cams. I pretty have every bolt on. o2 housing, exhaust mani, intercooler piping, bigger interooler etc. I was dyno'd on a dynamics dyno. Which reads 10% lower than a dynojet

Def. wasn't a Z06. I pulled 2 cars from 50-120 on my Friend's 330awhp EVO when my Z only had an intake.
