It wasn't me, my C6 never left the garage this weekend. But, it wouldn't be too hard to beat, especially from a stop. It only went 13.0 @ 109 for me. Stock Corvettes are SLOW.

hmmm....

I would think your MPH would be a little faster Tony?

I ran stock 12.5 @ 113

Exhaust: 12.3 @ 116

Heads/Cam: 11.5@119

That's because it is an automatic
I only say that b/c my truck is auto - I'd love to have another standard in it though. I miss it.

I have a much better record against Vettes than I do F-bodies. Dunno why.

Tony, I'm sure that time will go down when the cold air comes around.

His MPH should be higher BECAUSE its a 6spd. I am not noting the times.


And its not like Tony is learning to drive a 6spd...

Garett, maybe my Z51 is a factory turd

It had severe torque management issues that night, I could feel it bog between shifts even when I powershifted it perfectly. It actually ran slower when powershifted. Plus, that was with only 500 miles on the car, and a very hot day.

I like slow baselines, gives a better before/after result
