I glazed the stock clutch in the Cobra pretty badly at a rental in late-October that I organized. Fuggin' thing was on the limiter and smoking the whole way down the track.
I have a Novi car too, but it's my '95 GT.
Might have been somebody else?

No scanner so this is taken with a camera, a little blurry but it gets the job done.

The 6-speed auto trans is a $1,2xx option just for the record....

Impressive to hit a 12.4 stock in that car!

I'm sure some folks don't believe you, but doubting is always a two way street isn't it.

Very impressive. Was just wondering today if any 6sp/auto cars were hitting the tracks yet.

I heard so many best's at that track. Stock LS1's running 12's, LT1'S running low 13's, 5.0 's in the high 13's stock. Is that track below see level ??The prep I hear is great. God I'd love to take my car across country just to run at that track. Bring that C6 here to CA and you'll lucky to get a high 12. No pi##ing on your parade just very green with envy. Congrats , great times ... for any track !!!

Not below but it is just above it I think. Prep isn't usually that great this early in the season but typically the track hooks very well.
I do know that I'd be slower out there (NM, CA, CO etc.) but umm, I don't live there. One of the few perks about living in dirty Jersey I guess.

Default Wow Wow Wow!

Man I can't belive it! Actually, I can, it's just my luck that I seem to have, my cars are always slower. It was that way with my 2000 Firebird Formula, and with my 2002 Firehawk too. Now it's so with my C6 Vette!

Last year on the Power Tour, my best time was 13.6 even though my buddy got in the car and ran a 12.89! It has a Random Tech 3" exhaust though.

This year I ran a 13.101 (w 2.00 60' time) at 108.8, then a 14.21 (I missed third again just like last year too, then a 13.4 at 107, and finally a 13.68. I'm sure someone who knows what they are doing can get into high 11s.

This year I have the Random Tech exhaust and a Granetelli MAF. I also purchased a VaraRam Snake Charmer, but took it off before the Power Tour because I wasn't happy with the fit around the filter. I also had purchased a Predator programmer but couldn't get the dang performance tune to load for me! Turns out it had the wrong revision. Diablo was good with me and loading up the Correct tune revision. Now I have to find a 1 amp charger first. WHY wouldn't that come with it?

Yes. The 2006 models have a 6 speed automatic (with paddle shifters on the steering wheel for use when you're in "sport" mode). Mine has it, too.

I do love the paddles on the street though.
I bet u get annoying lag on those paddle shifters, it gets really F'n annoying Nice time though
