I wouldn't worry about that loss. You can drive your car on the street and run pump gas, what's he doing besides trailering and running race fuel?? You have got the baddest damn street legal Corvette I have seen in some time. Good luck on continued success at the track. Out of curiosity how much more boost can the STS make??? I saw 13 lbs I thought.....could you beat that guy with a few more lbs of boost???? Good luck and awesome try against a track only race car.

My car still has the stock bose stereo , cruise control , gets 24mpg on the highway , I took the A/C compressor off the car when it was 6months old and I was still living in Florida , I never used it , it's a performance car to me , not a luxury car .

With the new turbo , intercooler and a transbrake that just became available for the electronic overdrive transmissions , I should lay down an 8.99 pass in the future , we'll see , I'll be happy with consistent low to mid 9's and 150+ trap speeds .
