Congrats!

What was your 60ft? I see that its missing on the slip.

To answer your question, yes, the lower the 60ft the better the times. You have alot of room for improvement!

Nice video. I can hear you spinning on the shifts. I am just going to take a guess and say your 60ft was a high 1.8 to low 1.9. I am figuring this by your 330ft. We have simialr power and when i got a 1.805 60ft that gave me a 4.933 330ft, thats why i think you were in the high 1.8`s to low 1.9`s. With some 1.7 60ft`s, you will see the 330ft drop down to 4.8xx`s, possible high 4.7xx`s, you have a lot left in the car.

You should have some room left. My '02 Z06 ran a 7.53 (1.64 60') 1/8 mile on MT ET Street Radials and that was with 385rwhp. (only an 1/8th mile track here)

Congrats!!!

Congrats on the 11s. I think Tony B4's analysis is on the mark. A little better launch and you'll be into the mid 11s.

Nice going. You have plenty of et left.Keep chippin' away! Those tires need alot of heat. They can put you in the mid-high 1.5x's.

I have seen 10.9x's@124+ with 396rwhp 364rwtq in an 03 Z in very good air.
The c5Z is a killer.

You need to find out some minor things before shooting for your ET goals IMO.

What is your track altitude
What is the DA for that day you run
Your 60ft
shifting
weight of the car being consistant (fuel level, items in the car etc)
If you can find out whats the variation of track level from starting line to the finish line.
