Default C6 Z51 11.5 @ 128mph!!!!

I think this is the first 11 second C6, ok we went to the dragstrip today, www.silverdollarraceway.com and we tore off 4 back to back 11.5's at 128 mph. I will tell you this the clutch did not like it and would not let me use the power down low so the 60 foot was a mear 1.96. Here is the time



Cheers

How much were you spraying? 128mph from a stock c6 and the juice is flying

Nice runs, can't wait to see what it will do with a good clutch and better 60 ft. My guess - 10.80's. Once again CONGRATS!

This guy is correct very well said, it just getting the timing to retard on a C6 to run a 160 shot, because there is not tuning software out for the cars yet.

You have issues with the LS2? A 160 shot on a new bone stock motor that ripps off 11.5's is pretty damn impressive.

I don't think you guys are respecting the 128mph traps enough. That is really cooking. Fantastic job!

I agree. If it were that easy, why aren't more people on the nitrous ET list trapping those speeds?
