I think he is looking for the fastest non-turbo (NA) car.

Again, it would be the Lingenfelter 427 vette, runs tens and is quicker off the line then the TT due to lag.

I think No Mercy's MTI 422 Vette went 9.9 or something like that, I dont know if he was on nitrous or not.

That was a nitrous pass

Try over at Corvette Forum they might know the answer.

I think the fastest C5 N/A is around a 10.8 or so.

I think that c5 owners are not as quick to abandon the street for all out race cars. Maybe because they are not as good at being an all out race car or to pricey. I am going for both so pump gas for me.

its just most Corvette owners dont abandon the cars "true" heritage as a sports car, so they "settle" for a good straight line car, that doesnt inhibit its ability to take turns.

I heard awhile back of the quickest n/a C5 being in the low 10s, but whether thats true or not, im not sure. But, probably the QUICKEST C5 is the TT 427 from LPE. They're hoping for 8.7s pretty soon. Quickest pass ive heard of was in the 8.9s, which is insane for a STREETABLE car thats got around 1100 engine hp. As well as its still got the IRS and 3.42s in it!
