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.

Back on the slicks. DA was slightly better at MIR on the 10.04 pass.

Sounds like the wheel speed stayed up after launch unlike when you were in the 10 teens. Bet it has a 9.80 in it if you get the DA you had before. Good job and great driving.

We have talked about it but I think I may wait awhile prior to deciding. It drives so great now I'd hate to make it radical. Only time will tell.

I would'nt be so sure, my Camaro is at about 3000lb w/o me (still has all creature comforts too) :chug:.....come on give up the weight.:judge:

I just wanna know if I can get in the weight relm that it takes to run that good.

What kind of power does that thing make?

It's lighter;) I'd guess ~515rwhp on a stationary dyno in 0 DA lol
