Your car should be a close run vs a stock 6G....

Yes I agree. If I gap one by more than 1/2 car to a car then I'm gonna say either the guy couldn't drive or it was out of its powerband.

Daggum that 6gen is only 9mph off me in the 1/8th when I was bolt ons.

1/8 mile in S. Florida. You mean Homestead? IMO Terrible track depending on what lane you get. Never designed as a dragstrip.

Hio can never seem to decide if he prefers ET or trap. Depends on the argument

Yes, but I've ran at that track stock too, right lane which isn't prepped just like the guy in the vid.

Countyline will reopen in a few months.

That sounds about right. My stock '15 C7 A8 ran 8.0 at 90 on 90+ degree day a few weeks back. SS about 300-400 pounds heavier than Stingray
