I see it had C5 Z06 rear wheels. Clear indication of non stock tires. Maybe some sticky drag tires. Skinnies on the front. Clearly a power adder on the car. 156 horsepower over stock. LOL at those that think a stock C7 runs this well.

So auto trans might have done the trick (deep 10)?

I'm guessing that was a combination of torque management killing it off launch and then the nitrous kicking in.

Nice run. Doesn't mean much however, till we know what's been done to it. Also, as others have said, looks like maybe drag radials, which obviously makes a big difference in ability to hook.

You would be surprised(well, maybe not you) what some people will do...like look at the title for two seconds, quick view of the video, and then start believing/posting that a stock C7 will run eleven flat. Some people are that gullible, and certain facts need to be pointed out to them.

I would have made the same post if it had been a C6.
