Default J-Rod is fastest N/A 346 at Tuner Shootout?

Looks like J-Rods (LG, Absolute) 10.67 edges out Brents (Cartek) 10.71 to win the title of fastest NA 346 vette at the tuner shootout.
Any more confirmations?

Just got the news that J-Rod ran a 10.67 to Brent's 10.71 at the shootout in
SC!!!! Same day, same track, no ice on the track!!

Congratulations to J-Rod and his LG Motorsports G5X-3 cam and head Z06 and to Tommy 3 gun for the great effort. Sorry I couldn't be there to help with the car, but they did a great job.

Here is to the undisputed FASTEST C5 head and cam car in the country!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


DA was +300 and it is now +700 they are still running but the times are not getting any better

J Rod did a 1.449/ 60 ft

6.813 @ 101.88 at the 1/8 mile
10.672 @ 126.17 in te 1/4 mile

I dont think Jrod has AS heads. LG has their own head porter.

I want to hear the 60' times. A 10.67 is damn good for 126mph. Traction must not have been an issue at all.

Well, from what I understand. J-Rod's car did not win the event due to the fact that when he ran that ET he was 50lbs under the required lbs for his class. He went back added weight and could not match that same ET. He ran slower.



Rules were there black and white ... someone did not follow them ...
