No I'm talking about Maryland international lol, tracks out here don't run fast like back there. Would kill for -1500 to -2000da on the norm with private track rentals being prepped all day long LOL

We still have it pretty good. Pretty common to see 150-500ft DA in the cooler months out here @ SRP.

Yep put me into that list of hurt feelings. Really annoying part is that I've beat two C6Z06's in the past but that didn't stop him from coming around me after I got into drive and putting a car plus on me.

Ya we do have it good at Infineon or Sac at night time especially, but not as good as east coast guys.

In Iowa, we only have 2 1/4 tracks. One actually worth going to - and even that one you have be careful to choose the correct nights for good track prep

Some -1500 or -2000 da would be sweet. If lucky come winter you can catch +150 here. It last for about two months. Usually when tracks are open once a month. And every one goes so you get one-two runs in.

440 rwhp 31XX lb cars don't trap 130 mph period unless they are in -2500 DA like at ATCO or MIR. The Z06's I have seen at the track trap 120-124. That is the average.

A bone-stock C6 Z should have no problem trapping 125 mph in the quarter. I've seen that done many times. Heck the C5 Z's trap ~116 and they're down a good 90whp at about the same weight. I would consider 120 mph a weak trap for a C6 Z06.

Well, there are 2 1/4 tracks and 3 1/8th mile tracks that I know of - but who wants to go to an 1/8th mile track?

Is this c6z06 debate like that mach1 running low 13s?

A few do it so now everyone of them traps 130?

im not saying they don't trap 125. im saying 95% of them trap in the 120-124 range. I guess Ill say 121-125 lol.

Exactly. 1/8 mile = No fun.

I can agree with that, just depends where you run I guess. We get some pretty stellar conditions out here in the winter months so mid-11s @ ~125 traps isn't too uncommon.

I think you need come school a few 5th gene here. One making almsot 700whp that can only manage mid 12's and trap 121 at track. And a Few cam ones that run mid 12 and trap 112.
