The only Vette with a speed limiter is the base car. The Z06 and ZR1 do not have limiters. The reason is insurance costs and the tires.

By the way, it takes about 60 seconds to remove the limiter on a standard C6 if you have a programming tool.

Bleah, TRX tires. Gah. Go fit some later wheels already, you have no idea of all the traction you’re missing out on.

It has an all stock exterior/interior and is show car (except the unobtrusive Supersprint stingers coming out of the tail end).

Now, for actual racing, the four cylinder e30 M3 is totally stripped of weight, has a few minor changes for wheels, tires, and cut out fenders, but is truly the only real race ready production car ever built coming right off the assembly line.

Unfortunately, the difference between a road car and a race car is lost on most people. The real Ferrari guys kind of laugh when they say: "Oh, you like the road cars."
