Default New Best!!!!

Took the car out with my new E.T. Streets for the first time. Well, they did not let me down.

Car is a 03 Z06 w/ Vararam, Kooks 1 7/8 headers, borla, textrailia, DTE half shafts, and E.T. streets.

DA was 3400 ft which is good for Vegas.

60'
1.71
1/4
11.94 @ 115.84

As far as I know I am the first C5 Z06 to get into the 11's stock motor with bolt ons out here.

Pretty decent times for a 3400' DA. You would be mid 11s at ATCO, HRP, or Cecil.

I had the same mods way back when...I had over 100 passes in PA and never made it into the 11's..
My first day at Atco I ran 11.7, 11.6, and 11.5
I was shocked how much the altitude made a difference...

Nice times for that DA

Is Vegas' track slow? Seems like the car should be faster with that 60'?

It is a good track but the elevation and air is not good. It takes alot more to go fast here. What most cars do with bolt ons at MIR or atco, takes 100-150 shot of N20 plus bolts ons here. My 2002 TA went 10.60 @ 130 with heads/cam 150 shot, converter, full bolt ons in Vegas. That would be a 9 sec car at a good track. But the good thing is everyone is slower here.
