10 Second Club - 10.13 @ 149 review my slip!

I finally had the oppurtunity to make a few passes down the track to see what I could manage out of my street car. I drove to the track swapped tires and hoped I wouldn't leave a trail of driveline parts behind me. The car is a C5 Z06 with stock suspension, full weight with nothing removed running on a set of very old set of 26" ET streets.

60'.............1.84
330............4.59
1/8............6.76
MPH..........111.61
1000..........8.61
1/4...........10.13
MPH..........149.36

As you can tell by the 60' the launch was very soft in fear of breaking. Do you think the 1/8 MPH is influenced by the poor launch? I would have thought my 1/8 MPH to be higher relative to my final trap speed. I think next time I'm going to try a set of 28" tires combined with some more seat time to get me into the 9's! Anyone want to guess what's possible with a decent 60'?

Thanks

Guaranteed 9s!

Wow !!!!!!..nice, Very NICE!!!!

turbo car? thats a LOT of MPH on the back end. 1k or so HP?

Yeah your 1/8 is greatly influenced by that soft of a launch. That mph is good for LOW 6s. That is hauling some major ass on the back end.

Nice, that sucker is rolling on the big end. Car has easy 9s in it.

What the hell is done to the C5? That is some sickass MPH on the big end of the track.

I think his setup details are in the FI section. Made like 900+

You'd better flip that number back over LOL . . . To the OP yes 60' influences 1/8 mph. I trap 3 mph less than you at the 1/8 and 60' over a half second faster . Boy do the tables turn after the 1/8 tho' boy she's storming out the back door.

Yup that's me:) Novi supercharger on a 402ci!
I've seen timeslips where others are trapping higher than me in the 1/8 but less in the 1/4. That's why I ask with a harder launch will my 1/8 mph increase? Also, the rule of thumb is for every .10 in your 60' you gain .15 at the top. Is this correct? If I can achieve a 1.54 60' I should see .45 off my current best and that would bring me to a 9.68!!!

Mid 9's are within easy reach there she wont even be breathin hard one ya.

Whoops. I should have said the 1/8. My bad!

Holy high trap speeds ! Nice run,nines for sure with a better 60,slip it and go,it wont break !

Well RobZ has run 9.33 with his vette and he has about 250 less hp than you. He has perfected his setup but here is a video of him. You should have no problem running 9's with some more seat time.

I'm using a spec twin disk clutch and others have reported it doesn't slip, but I will try it next time. Getting off the line in one piece is always a concern, but on the highway this car really shines!

Thanks guys!

I run a tex twin in mine,same problem.Trust me,leave at 5Kplus and dont dump it,Ease it out,it WILL slip slightly and your 60s will come down as well ! 10.09 at 140+ with a 1.53 60 and my wife drives it all the time,you wont hurt it(well at least TOO much):burn:

Holy nuts!! +38mph on the top end?!?!!!

Holy nuts!! +38mph on the top end?!?!!!

Boosted with a soft launch.Kinda cool to see some of the all motor cars with 4 links that cut 1.2x 60s and trap about 128 or so.His trap on a NON IRS car would be mid/low nines no problem,with a six speed,its gonna take some work. Damn you six speed guys ! :hail:

Wow that trap speed i would guess low 9s and high 8s if you could keep it all together on a hard launch.
