Default H/C 07 Z goes 9.46 with a 1.22-60'

I was able to attend the No Da#n Excuses event a few weks ago and get a new personal best with my 07 Z06. Gary did a great job of organizing the event and Steven was there all day taking awesome video footage. Can't wait to do it again. Track prep was great. I spun quite a few times because frankly I wasn't there to bracket race.... I was there to try to set a record so I was swinging for the fence!!!!!
Fortunately I was able to run 2 almost identical runs which helps the credibility of my runs. So a 1.22 and a 1.23 60' really lets you know it is launching hard!
The car carried the wheels about 30' on the first 9.46 run. It is a bone stock suspension(except front sway removed). The car run on shell 93 gas and drives very mild on the street until you rip on it.
I have the RPM A4 conversion and Yank SS4000 converter.
I'm still running the stock intake but that is going to change soon to a FAST and NW TB.

Great job Norm. Makes you wonder about ever touching that stock suspension.

I can't imagine how a 1.22 60' must feel. Congrats on the pass, car is moving.

Those are some awesome passes to say the least. What kind of rear wheel # did it put down?

Looks like a turd! Lets line them up! LOL.

Major props man. That is as impressive as the black car. For what it is. I hope you get it out often this year.

Awesome as usual...

I just bought some Qa1 single adjustables for the rear of my car and plan on getting the Drag R spec ones for the front here soon.

I'm hoping it makes the car more consistent.

Congrats! That is about the most efficient use of power as you can possibly have!

I wouldn't change a thing! With a different intake manifold, it might not leave as hard, and you could end up not being as quick on ET, but gain a little MPH.

N/A correct?

I have several changes planned to shoot for 9.15-9.25 range. I will install a fast 102 and a NW TB and an EWP. American Racing Headers is building a set of headers for me. Also a 15" rear wheel with the Mickey Thompson 275 pro to get a more consistent launch. I think 1.22 might be all that those hoosier DRs wanna dish out and I think a 1.20 is quite possible if I can stick the hit.

Al, it is NA with no immediate plans to put a bottle on it because it is a stock bottom end with the hyper ucraptic pistons.


They did a feature in Dragzine
