Found this on you tube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSsR-...eature=related I wonder if this is your buddy Andrewzpsu. I figured they would be in the high 11's or low 12's, but some to be solid 11's. What about quick LS2 cars? I figure they are probably in the mid 12's

I think so, but that was not stock. Still very impressive with only a few bolt ons and a tune

My wifes car ran 2 for 4 against my son-in-laws 505 rwhp 03 Cobra. Now it has a ram air and a tune and feels a tad faster. Hers is an a-6 car and it was bone stock at the time.

Your LS6 was shooting a 100 wet shot of nitrous lol.

Otherwise I walk you every time



But yes, I ran 11.718 @ 119.94 mph. It was the perfect day, at the perfect track (sticky and cold). There is a video up on youtube of the run. I think on the same day it could break into 11.60s, but thats only because I felt a very very very slight bog.

I've heard that someone has beaten my time stock, but this is apparently a friend of a friend so credibility is out the window lol

For those interested my car was the absolute base model manual transmission. No NPP, no Z51, no options what so ever. I had very low miles at the time so I was even on the stock runflat tires and even oil! hah
