There was a 9sec twin rear mount C5 vette about a year ago... I can't recall any single rear mounts in the 9's yet...

Longrange4u was going for a Large STS custom Rearmount, PT88 I think. His should be already done, if not, damn close. Last I heard he was shooting for around 900rwhp, so as far as single rear mount, he should be up there pretty close at least. Now all we need is for him to post some numbers.

My car is currently on hold, but I was shooting for low 10's in the mid 130's with my setup. I just ran out of money and time for now. A new baby boy will do that!

longrange and zombie are the two on this site i see the most with good #s , but a 10 is nothing to balk at, a 9 will be phenom. by the way burnham187 i love your avatar, go broncos

not sure if this is "STS", but it is a rear mount running in the 7's.
7sec rear mount

There is a yellow Collector Edition TA around my area in the works for 900rwhp. I think his screen name is longrangeforu?

Interesting, anyone putting good numbers down with the off the shelf kits? I know a few guys with them but they really aren't impressing me. They are kind of tards though.

zombie's is one of mine, when he bought the car it had an sts and made 425. Now he is in the mid 600's , went 10.5 a week ago or so. I have another that is a stock internals engine still that went 10.62 as well.

Zombie s car is scheduled for some work this week end and if all goes well, single digits mat be pretty close.

Again, the C5(Major Spray's car) is not a STS.
