Default Thank your to this forums vendors

Kyle and myself would like to thank some of the vendors of this forum that made our build successful ,and allowed us to achieve our goals in obtaining the fastest 6 speed c5 corvette - 9.25 @ 153 mph-(3600 lb )a/c street driven

Nano nitrous - Brad thanks it works perfect everytime

Nitrous Outlet - dedicated fuel system,other nitrous parts

American Racing Headers - 1 7/8 headers

Tick performance - c5 master cylinder kit -never misses a shift

Virginia Speed -bad *** tuning from Ed Hutchings

And all of the other members of ls1 tech for putting all the information up on the boards,with out ls1 tech our goals would have been harder to accomplish. Now we need to work on our poor 1.48 60 ft and see if we can row the gears into an 8 second pass. Thanks again, Mark

Chad, myself and bullet cams designed the cam. Its a nitrous cam .it really picks up on the spray. 10.7 na to 9.25 nitrous. We really didn't make more than 5 passes na prob could go a 10.4 na if we really tried. Agreed about chad! One of the best in the business.

Congrats, that is one bad azz car, and one hell of a driver. Most do not realize the difficulty piloting a 6-speed IRS Vette to fast times. It is more difficult than any other 6-speed. i have been chasing various 6-speed records for years and think it is a blast. most of my Vette buddies whom want to go fast have converted to automatics, what sissies, lol, but they could never figure out the 6-speed. Did you see that Ranger just set another C6 Z06 record?

Do you run in competition mode? I noticed it pulled to the right, like they usually do, but came back under control immediately. I always run in comp mode and it has kept me out of the wall at 100plus mph. It can react and make corrective measures before we can even think about it. But some still prefer to run with out, but IMO don't realize the benefit and it does nothing to slow the run normally. Again, congrats on some fine driving.
Robert
