Default Second encouner with yellow coupe C6

Well, heading home on the highway I spot this yellow C6, this may have been the same C6 with the baby story about 2 months ago. But I couldnt see a face at night, so from 60 mile roll we go at it and I'm leaving the canary behind. Behind enough that my rear view mirror is becoming pretty useful.

I slow down and now the canary is up my ass ready to jump over it but unfortunately he failed in his attempt.

On the last run, we go from about 70 up. third gear becoming pretty useful and 4th gear being the gear I dynoed in which pulls really hard, obviously since its the closest to 1:1 ratio. Well, by mid 4th gear i already cut over to his lane and got in front of him, so he cuts over to the other empty lane to pass me but I just sped away into the horizon and that was the end.

What I'd like to know is how much rwhp they put down, I know they put down 400 to the engine though. This seemed to be an easier race than an actual older Z06.
Although tonight was a cool night as compared to the other day. And, there was no N20 assist either, bottle empty...

I really dont wanna put any numbers out there till the car is really done. Working some fuel starvation problems as we speak.

But last dyno in a controlled environment obviously were low 4's

The C6 Z51 6spd and the Z06 both put down around 350ish whp and 350ish wtq, but the Z is about 100lbs lighter than the base C6 Z51 which is the fastest and lightest model. There's wide range of time for the C6 depending on which model, they go from the fastest which is the base Z51 6spd to the slowest which is Auto non-Z51 with lots of options(more weight). When I raced my friend's Z51 6 spd I put 2 cars on him from 30-120. His car only had 1k miles, and I had a 100lb passenger.

^Highest I've read about is about 360rwp, I think 380rwhp can be done with headers.
