Default New best in the Corvette! 10's inside!

Well I finally got some clean passes at the track after all my clutch issues have been worked out and got the nitrous on it and tuned(75 shot). This was my first time at a 1/4 mile track with the car and I also ran a new best n/a time as well.

best n/a pass:
1.65
7.21@98
11.32@121 (not sure why my mph seemed low after 98 in the 1/8)

Best N20 run(first time I have ever sprayed the car off the dyno)
1.56
6.90@102(101.8)
10.72@130(129.9)
video of the above pass is below

The car made 404/380 on a mustang dyno and exactly 491/500 on spray. Not sure about sea level but the track is at Rockingham NC. I am shifting the car 6500 and the limiter is set at 6800! 330' was 4.731 on the motor pass and 4.502 on spray

The heads are stock 241 castings with some porting, the cam is a G5X3, and the intake is a stock LS6 with ported stock throttle body and Dynatech longtubes to some B&B bullets to finish it off!

The fronts are some heavy motorsports wheels 17x9 and the rears at the track are 17x11 ZR1's. I would really like to get some skinnies or GTO spares for the front I talked to a fellow vette owner and he gained 2-3 mph by only changing to GTO spares on the front! I'm too cheap for CCW's


Thanks for all the comments guys!
