Default C6Z (750+N2O) v SC Gen 5 Camaro (800+rwhp)

This run was at the runway rivalry. The RR is a roll event where the race starts at approx 60mph. The run is 14-1600ft. The rule of thumb is the trap speeds at the RR are typically 10mph faster than 1/4mile traps. The runs are released (given the green light) when the cars are within a car length of each other and at roughly 60.

This race was extremely close! I won by a nose! I hit the rev limiter in 3rd which cost me mph and almost lost me the race. On my setup I'm running a Lingenfelter timing retard box which cuts all ignition when you hit the limiter on nitrous. In this run my C6Z trapped 151 (N2O 150 shot pass) and the Mach 1 trapped 153. Enjoy!

Dennis, I know it's forever from you, but it'd be worth the effort I believe if you could make it down! This event is awesome!

I'd love to do an event like this. Maybe next year.

Was that 3rd, that you started from at 60mph? Traction issues, or just faster to only make 1 shift?

Yep, 3rd gear start. It put me a little low in the rev band(3700), but seeing that I was making 771#ft, I thought I might run into traction issues if I was in 2nd on the hit. After looking over the vids, I think I could've gained another mph or 2 if I started in 2nd with good shifts.
