Default Bolt-On Only C6Z 9.97@137.72 mph

Breakdown of pass.
60'.......1.366
330'.....4.119
660'.....6.378
MPH....109.17
1000'....8.331
1/4......9.973
MPH....137.72

Sorry everyone. Here are more details. It's been very hectic around here with prior commitments and more important family things to do. So let me start by thanking many of those that have helped make this happen.
RPS Clutches
Halltech
RPM Transmissions
Vette-Air
American Racing Headers
The quality of these parts and the service provided by these vendors are unsurpassed.
Mark(Tirecraft), Matty(Tune Time), Kyle(Stonabones69), Troy who have worked very hard throughout this journey by being friends as well as providing the technical expertise.
Ranger and Dr. Ron for their assistance at the track. (John- Thanks for being a mentor to all of us in the Corvette world.)
I will add Bruce since he has definitely assisted in the process.
My lovely bride Valerie and my two beautiful daughters, Kelly and April, who have stood by me during this long journey.
Last but not least, Robz, who always believed that this would happen and made me believe it too. Rob, you are a great teacher and friend. Thanks so much.

This pass was made on a Saturday T&T day. Weather was beautiful and the air was of very good quality. There are a few pics which will get posted. Time of pass was 3:43 and not 4:43 since the clock was never changed back to EST. Temperature was in the mid 50's. Everything came together on the very last pass of the day, more correctly, the last car down the track.

If you didn't say the track I would've guessed ATCO.

Mod list? What was the DA, -3000?

Insian man, thats my dream car! I cant believe you can buy a z06, and with basic modds run high 9s! Think about the work it takes to make an old school car run like that, not to mention you can go on cross country tip in the vette!

Per the dragtime calculator, the slip date and time puts DA abour -1835.

Gary did say in another post the track clock is off by an hour if that changes the formula. They never set the clock back

People would love to believe that DA (-3000', -1835' or even -1300' ); however, the only accurate measurement is with a handheld weather station. Wait til the photos come out. Actually, if you see some of the vids that day, many are wearing T-Shirts.
Quite frankly, I'm tired of people only interested in the DA. (We did have a weather station on both Friday and Saturday.) I will say that we were trapping near 139 mph on Friday with the DA at a REAL -235'.
Pitt- I greatly appreciate your support.

Yeah, I have seen many days the posted weather didn't match the track temp at all. Not many people would wear only a t-shirt in 48 degree weather

48* in the North is considered a warm day in winter, no?
