Default Could we start a FASTEST CORVETTE list?

C4 and C5's only. Would anybody be interested?
Maybe we could get jhelms to make out the list?

Ok, I think the qualifications should be:
Stock rear end
AT or M6 is ok
No powerglides
LT1, LS1, or Bowtie blocks are ok
Turbos, NOS, Stroker motors or any combo is ok
Any Race weight is fine.

Please include the following in posts:
Name
Year model Corvette
Gear size
Tire size
Weight
ALL Modifications to engine
ALL Modifications to drivetrain
M6 or AT

60' Time
1/8 Time
1/8 MPH
1/4 Time
1/4 MPH
Please post best time that your car has EVER done!
Here is mine.

No offense to Nick or his very impressive ride <img src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" border="0" alt="[hail]" /> , but since this is LS1Tech.com, we should probably limit the list to C5s or cars with transplanted LS1's. Otherwise, I think it is a great idea... <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

My '95 A4 LT1 Vette ran a 13.20@105.47 with only an open air lid/K&N, Hypertech and 160' t-stat. Goodyear GSCs and a 2.59 rear. But I don't think that will get me on any lists! <img src="graemlins/gr_cry.gif" border="0" alt="[whiner]" /> <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0"> <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Thanks for the nomination but the M6 list is hard enough to keep up with <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

I 'stole' my formatting from one of the other lists, so someone can feel free to steal the formatting from mine to start a new one.

Ha that's funny Nick, you wanted to start a vette list and now they don't want you in it. haha <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> I own a LS1 and I don't mind if a C4 is on the list.
I think this should be more of a late model CHEVY site as opposed to JUST LS1's. Just my opinion.

Yeah the car is toast. After hitting the 1st car it was slung into oncoming traffic and hit 5 other times ending up in the guard rail. Well I'll see how long it takes to get everything taken care of so I can move on to the next car. Funny thing, I almost had to buy registration for this car which would have expired in January and that would have been a first for me. Never have been able to keep a car long enough to get it inspected or registered. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">
