Default Finally made it to the track
i finally made it to the track since i bought my ZO6 and was actually surprised with it! i took the 85mm intake off so it was just my axle back exhaust and the ported tb and it went 12.54 1/4 at 113mph with a 2.04 60ft. Let me know what you think.

You and I would have had a close race. My stock 08 C6 ran a 12.565 @ 112.98 mph, 2.01 60'. May have edged you on reaction time with my .019

I've since added headers and tuning. 12.18 @ 117.54 mph. And now no time but an Xcelerator intake and more tuning.

not bad at all . More trips to the track and colder weather will get you in the 11s.

That sounds awesome. I just spent the weekend with my dads 08 (LG headers, K&N and tune). Man is that one nice ride. I hated to give it back yesterday.

Very nice first run.

There is always room for improvement though, keep practicing and you're going to get much better.
