Default C7 fast list!

Haven't seen one yet and with the C7's going faster and faster I figured it was time to start up a Fast list.

I copied and pasted from Rangers thread in the C6 Z06 section. Wasnt much I had to modify to apply to the C7. I'll do my best to update as often as possible as the posts come in.

Here are the copied rules....


The Fast List, found at the end of Post #1 of this thread, is open for additions as submissions are received and validated.

The Fast List has five sub-lists.

Bone-Stock on Stock Tires. This means completely stock with no performance changes whatsoever; stock exhaust, stock airpath, stock “untuned” and ""never-tuned" computer (ECU/PCM), etc.

Bone-Stock, except Non-Stock Tires including drag radials. Otherwise, the same requirement as above.

Bolt-Ons without Internal Engine Modification (e.g. modified air-path, headers, PCM-tune, aftermarket clutch, non-stock rear gears, skinny front tires)

Internal Engine Mods plus Bolt-Ons (e.g. stock displacement with bolt-ons plus heads and/or cam)

Power Adders (Nitrous, Turbo, Supercharger) and Non-Stock Displacement

Rules:
In proposing submissions for inclusion on the list, please follow these simple rules

Rule #1. Post the details of your quarter-mile pass using this template:
Note: your submission won't be acted upon unless it is in the format below. This requirement applies to each new Personal Best.



Year of the C7:
Tires used on the pass:
Performance Mods (if any):
Category submitted for:
60'.............
330'...........
660'...........
660’ mph...
1000'..........
1320'..........
1320’ mph…
Name of the track:
Date of pass:
Weather conditions: (include Density Altitude, if known):

Image of complete Time Slip:

Link to Video:


Rule #2. Times that may qualify for the top-20 in each category require posting of an image of the complete time slip. If you lack the ability to post an image, contact me via PM, and I will help you. Edit for Clarification (Sep 3 2007): "time slip" means full time slip. Must include date/time of the pass and customarily includes identification of the track issuing the slip. Image should be in the vertical orientation and the numbers must be legible. Edit for Clarification (Jan 10 2011) A time slip is encouraged for all submissions as a means of improving documentation of accomplishments and increasing credibility of the Fast List.

Rule #3. Track times will not be corrected for weather or track altitude. Those elements can be noted in the comment portion of the submission to clarify the conditions under which the run was made. If interest merits, we can include a single category for fast times at tracks with altitudes, say, above 3000’ for the official track elevation. Please let us know if there is interest in such a category.

Rule #4. All members are invited to submit his/her times on this thread. The top 50 or so for each category will be included in the Fast List. Only one pass per member per car-model per category will be included on the Fast List.

Rule #5. In the event two members submit a 1320’ ET identical to the thousandth of a second, the tiebreaker is the higher 1320’ mph.

Rule #6. (Oct 20 2010): Stating explicitly a rule applied to all submissions since the Fast List's inception, in order for your track results to be included on it, they must be plausible, probable and credible. The time slip must match the capabilities of the car.


Clarification (Oct 20 2010): A car with a tuned (modified file) PCM or a non-OEM PCM is not eligible for either of the two stock classes thereafter. This means once tuned, always tuned.

We should have the top time for internal engine mods plus bolt ons. Same car that went a 9.99 went a 10.66 at 127mph on motor.

You also may want to remove the * note about conversion to an auto since it is not needed.

Looks good and thanks for taking it on.

Just asking: Shouldn't drag radials be added to the list of mods for the existing entries?

Another recommendation would be to list the post number in the thread next to the time on the list (in parenthesis) so that people can go directly to that post and get details.

I think the C7 needs a slow list - who's not running 11s and pulling 1.7 or better 60fts bone stock? What a car.

There should be footnotes as to M7 V A6? This was pretty good air, Drag times lists about -700 for both passes.


I took my M7 non Z51 and no npp option, to MIR today

Bone stock on stock tires:

11.95@119.62


Stock on 315/35/18 mt et street II:

11.72@119.52
Date is correct on timeslips, but time is 1 hour off (jason must not believe in daylight savings time)



This is a very hard car to drive fast at a drag strip, it definately needs TQ management tuned out!

Link to Video: I can see a lil more left in it maybe another tenth. You see in the video for the first half a second I left a little soft before I got on it. I had trouble earlier with wheel spin. Track was cold not many people running. After this run I had to leave the GF was cold.

I can't watch the video right now but you may want to add if the car is a Z51, has npp, and if it is an A6 or M7. I am assuming M7?

Automatic. It is geared for the Drag Strip. And doesn't have as much Torque Controlling.
Not to mention if will launch and shift perfect and fast everytime.

Autos are definitely more consistent and far easier to launch.

Personally, I think drag racing an auto is pretty much fun for 2 runs and after that I'm bored. I may get inconsistent runs with a manual, but I have a lot more fun doing it.
