Default another 10 sec lethal cam zo6

+1950 DA
finally after all the bs i get the car to the track tonight to practice my launches and come away with a 10 second slip.
it was was 50 deg out tonight and a perfect night for racing.(will get the da #) 2006 forged ls7,vararam,ported intake,LETHAL cam,kooks-no cats,bullets,text 0z700 clutch,18x10.5 wheels w/305 mickey thompson dr's.
first off i like to say for anyone looking to better their times, read rangers posts. i have not had much seat time in this car at the track and my best 60ft to date was 1.88. had the tire preasure at 18 psi on all runs. track prep was pretty decent as well. here's the rundown of my runs:
1. 60ft-2.04 leaving at 2k with a huge bog
1/8-7.52@102
1/4-11.31@130

2. 60ft-1.86- leaving at 3k, little bog not bad
1/8-7.28@102.5
1/4-11.06@130.5- not leaving yet, i gettin my 10!

3. 60ft-3.60- leaving at 3500-4000? but i tripped the beams raising the rpm's to 4000(felt like my fastest pass)
1/8-8.90@103.8
1/4-12.62@131- my 10 sec slip, launch put me in the seat

4. 60ft-1.80 woo hoo- my 60ft needed for a 10. lil wheel hop
1/8-7.29@88.5????? missed 3rd gear

5. 60ft-1.73 great launch 3500-4000 launch. sweet spot
1/8-7.05@102
1/4-10.83@131

cars runs great on the motor and is the fastest c6z in vegas. and may be taken out of the "for sale" section
car makes 540rwhp/500tq. if i could have gotten some more runs in, i think i could have gotten a 10.7-who knows.

Congrats on the new PB! Awesome temps you got out there. I think we're gonna have a high of 19* today on the east coast I'm itching to race so bad. Any videos???? TO help those with cabin fever. Curious what the DA is like out there on a nite like you describe. Keep chipping away at those ET's!!!!!

Congrats. Hopefully I'll get my 10 this season, unfortunately the DA is never lower then +5000ft here in Colorado so it's kinda tough.
