Track Results..
I though he was supposed to come down?
I don't know anything about this Rhino guy's tuning, but I would take that thing to Ed Wright, Closes guy to us and he is one of the best in the world.
He is going to be tuning my car and has tuned my brothers 06 C6 and soon to be our 08 C6

I've got almost 1000 miles on it. Pretty good in just 2 weeks..I still have to figure out the overheating problem. 
Rhino is pretty good..he plays with them for a while until it's just right.
Look at the 1/8th and look at how fast it got to the 1000ft..I was only half footin it..that's high 11's easily.

Well your 1/8th mile says that was about a 12.17. Sounds like you got some stuff to figure out.

Don't get bothered by the negative comments.
Thats alot of time and money you have invested in that car/motor/project and I would work my way up the same way. Get the motor broken in nice, have the adjustments done and get the car running great.
After the car feels good and you feel its ready to sink its teeth into the pavement, then go after that 10 second slip.
Good luck Merv and congrats on the ride.

What was real funny was we were at the track, all the LS1 guys were running 10.70's and up..even some of the Cam'd guys. I took it on one pass and pulled that 10.15 just bs'n around..those that knew what I was doin were like damn..
All the LS1 guys just **** themselves..the "LT1" guy just smoked them..
