My "OPINION" is that they are not the worlds easiest car to launch.

And Stop sign 32V is your car even capable of 11.90's? My 14 second C5 sure isn't.
Let's see some pics of your 'vette. You've posted that you have...what...

Dude just because you can't drive doesn't mean everyone can't. I HAVE drivin a red/white GT500 and IMO it was very easy to launch. I also think an 03 Cobra is easy to launch. I can drive, the weekend after I bought my Cobra I had it at the drag strip. You can't get your C5 out of the 14's and I'd bet the amount of money in my wallet right now (actually not alot, but its the point) that I could get your C5 in the mid 13's without even knowing if its an automatic or manual. If it was a manual I'd be suprised if I couldn't get it to run 13.2.

And to answer your question everything I own that I can start with a key will run 11.90 or better. So you are barking up the wrong tree. I however didn't say anything about you running 11.90, Unit did. And I can assure you his car will run 11.90 also. I think its time you put down the shovel and quit digging that hole.

I agree.

Evan Smith runs stellar times, and while not the best, I've yet to see anyone better him. Can anyone verify any completely stock (any combo/vintage) Mustang, Camaro, or Corvette that runs at least 2 tenths faster than Smith's times? So how about it... lets see a stock LS1 F-body running mid 12s, or a stock C5 Z06 running mid 11s, or a stock GT500 running 11s - I defy you!

Still hoping that I'm mistaken. Where's the pics of your 11 second Corvette?
