Did 1.745 60ft into 11.94. The other car was a 08 GT500 with a pulley 3.73 gears and intake pushing over 550 hp.

My car is a 6 speed manual and has headers, tune, and intake other wise everything else is stock. Plus the DA was 1100 and around 75* Still learning to shift this thing and only gettin better.

Finally but i still dont know why your MPH is so low you should be trapping mid 120's !!! Does you brother want to buy the headers and air intake off my old Vette ?

No, thanks he already has them, thanks anyway. I am thinking the da was around 1100 dont know if that has anything to do with it. Most of the M6 on corvette fourms are trapping around the same with bolt ons give or take a couple of mph. Maybe better on a cooler day.

Next time I am trying to get a 1.6 60ft see if thast helps a lil more.

Could just b the A6's Traps higher than a M6 cause of the 2:56 gear in it were as a F-Body the M6 Traps higher than a A4 !

should invest in a go pro.. Once you get und pulley, ported fast intake and tb you'll improve your times and et like no other. All though it is cheaper to do a mild cam set up,milled heads and get your intake ported as well as your Tb and you will gain a hell lot more then a fast 102 with 102 Tb. How do you like the 3.90's? I'm swapping my differential to that soon

Joe look at this slip between me and the GT500 so close. He had a pulley intake and gears.

Could be cause I am in 4th towards the end of the 1/4 mile.

I actually love the 3.90's. More seat of the pants feel and better fun factor. GM should of had that from the factory. I am running 275/40/17, so with the gear and 25.6 diameter tire its like a lil more than 4:10 gear. Its steap.

Yea I'm looking forward to it. I have 285/40/18s as my drag set up. With 3.90s are you still getting 32mpg+ cruising 65mph?

Yea it all depends on a lot of different things !!! My slowest time was 12.00 @123 w/ a 2.01 60ft !

If I have the 18's up front and 19's out back more like 29-30mpg. Also their is a slight whine, but it doesn't bother me at all.

Congrats on ur time. I think that Shelby has more then an 11.9 in it with the mods u said, unless it was on street tires.

He also had MT drag radials and went 11.687 @122 with a 1.784 60ft

I raced him on that run with a 1.745 60ft 11.942 @ 119.

He said his best was like a 11.4 during cold weather.

Overall it was a good run he came up to me and said man you can bang those gears on that vette, we both laugh cause it was a close race. He thought I had a supercharger or something on the vette where it is just bolt ons and gears.

He also had 3.73 gears as well
