Nice times. I need to get my CC503, stock heads, bolt-ons, M6 to the track soon.

When my car was a 6 speed I ran 12.32 @ 114. But that was in -1000DA. With the auto I ran the 12.23 is +1400 DA. Can't wait to see what it will run in some better air.

Just seems weird you can build a 1400whp C6 but your heads/cam LT1 only runs 13.4 @ 104 mph.
