a buddy of mine is in Denver at 6000 ft with a stock LT1 Camaro and ran a 15.1 with a 60 ft of 2.5 seconds....I am at a lower elevation, with a crapload more stuff done to the car, and he beats me??? REALLY?

sorry just read the post itself. you could maybe try fixing your 60 foot times, get them down a whole second and youll see 13s as said above. what kind of tires are you using? try underinflating them? like 20 or so psi i think is normally used, right guys?

I would love to......but it wasnt me that was doing it! At 3000 RPM launch I bogged and sometimes almost stalled. At 3500 RPM launch I spun an INSANE amount......couldn't find a "middle ground" and that spin was almost half throttle

How high are shifting, what rpm are you leaving at? Is the car tuned? Obviously your on street tires?

Brand new Goodyear Eagle F1 275/40/ZR17 tires not even a month old, Corvette 9.5" rims, 3.73 Gears, 3000-3500 RPM launch, Manual, Eidback Springs, BMR SFC's, Eidback LCA's, BMR Strut Tower Brace, BMR Panhard Rod, stock tire pressure

. No offense but you need a lot more seat time. Those 60's are HORRID. I think a Geo on an oiled down track can match them.
Get the short times where they should be and your ET will plummet
. Practice Practice Practice!!!
:edit: Damn just took a closer look at your mods. A 2.7 60' should not "almost stall" a HC LT1. Even with a crappy start it should mph much better then that - those are worst then stock trap speeds. Scan it, check for crossed plug wires, pull every plus and examine them, do a leakdown test, check fuel pressure, etc. because something is seriously wrong. I'm thinking at least two cylinders are not firing.

Damn! My car cut 2.3-2.4 60's on street tires and still ran 14.1 at 101.86 with the clutch slipping all the way down the track. Your mph is way to low to ever see a 13. Switch the plugs to NGK's and check the Opti. Hell if you have cats they might need replacing. Sounds like the car cant breath.
I ran a while back and ran a, (dont make fun of me) 16.047 with a 2.514 60 foot. I still trapped 95.99 mph. That is with a cold air intake, gears and a homemade tune. I spun worse in second than first due to oil on the track.
Even with a bad 60 foot you should be trapping alot higher than that.

Well I had those tires b4 my DRs and could get 2.0-2.1 60s @ 28psi leaving at 3500, it would either bog or roast them. I shifted at 6k. Again my car was basically stock, your car should be doing way better than that.
Why is the 60 so bad? Does it just spin?

like I said... at 3500 RPM launch they went into a DEAD spin even at half throttle....at 3000 RPM launch, the car bogged and almost died....I had to double clutch to get it moving again
