I'm guessing a 13.7 @ 104mph. The altitude is going to kill you. Around here I'd say you'd run 12.8 @ 110mph on drag radials.

Do you have any times before your mods?

I think 13.7 is in the ballpark. Keep in mind if he is a noobie with the M6 at the track he could have alot of traction issues, and may only do a mid 14.
I was at the track two weeks ago and watched a couple of noobs doing monster 14.7-15.0's with 2.2-2.4 60ft times. I had a "chat" with them, and they both clipped off high 13's before the night was over.
They were just giving LS1's a bad name! The announcer even mentioned that I should have a talk with them.
PRACTICE,PRACTICE,PRACTICE!!!

I've seen a few kids running mid 14's in their LS1's as well. I was embarrassed for the entire LS1 community. I had a little talk with them too.

Fast SS on TNT- How's the car coming along? I'm sure those springs you bought from me are going to give you 50rwhp or so.

Nah, I only get 22 extra horse from the springs. So I cleaned out the sticker bin at Pep Boys to make up the difference. And I added a VTEC TYPE R sticker to the SS emblems on the side....that should put me into the 17's.
