Also unless that ZO6 was there Sun I didnt see him hit 176, but then again I wasnt there on Sun so anythings possible.

There was a Black C6 ZO6 there. Not sure what he did.

I think Travis Marks went 170 I thought he said he was making 580rwhp? The last I heard was the C6 Z06 went 169. The guy driving the Ford GT wasn't John Hennessey, it was his shop and engine manager. Patrick should up with Pewter WS6 not sure of his mph.

Did you see the guy that laid his bike down at 206mph?

Pretty sure the black C6 Z06 was a guy from here in CS, he said he was taking his. Glad to hear it went well for him.

I went on Saturday. Made 6 passes. Had a blast!! 164mph (at 5,500rpm in 5th, LOL). Need more gear. Was singing along at 150mph (7000 rpm in 4th), then the car fell flat when I shifted into 5th (dropped to 5,000 rpm). I'm down 80-90 rwhp at 5000 rpm. Next time, I'll have the car set up to better use the power I have. 3.42 gears are not ideal for a high winding small-block.

That was me. Medium size cam. Comp 234/238 114LSA cam. Wasn't running the cam in my signature (but I should have been, LOL).

that was me with the C6 Z06, That car has a 173-175 mph in it, but i was taking it easy on the car since it is brand new(ie..granny shifting). I was talking to the guy with the ford GT and he told me it had headers, tune, different pulley and different injectors.
i wanted to stay both days but the wife only had patience for one day.
