Default Ran a 11:26 tonight

Stock z07 M7 with 950 miles on it. 3/4 tank 93 Octane. In Florida for vacation so went to PBIR tonight. Made 4 passes. My best is 11:267 @ 121.68. They are saying the right lane is off by 3mph. Which may be right. Ran a 11:328 @123.87 the pass before in left lane. Pretty impressed with this car so far. 3rd pass I power shifted 3-4 shift and it felt good so 4th pass power shifted 1-4. PDR said I ran a 11:60..... I think it's off a bit. But still really cool feature. I'll post the vid and time slip when I get a chance to up load it. Doing the road coarse on Saturday!! Can't wait for that!!!

The right lane at PBIR seems to be all over the place. I agree that it is at least a few mph slow. It is hard to quantify, because a data logger like a vBox will only show trap speed at 1320', but the track timing equipment averages over 66'.
I would say that 11.2 with a 1.82 definitely needs more than 121.8 mph.
Nice run!

Based on my years of experience down the 1/4 mile ... I concur about the trap speed.

Regardless the ET and 60' are excellent on this pass for stock tires.

Well done.

Excellent results! Bet that was fun!

What mode were you in? If Track, which PTM? And did you have the center wicker bill down or off?

I was in track mode with traction and stability off. The wicker was all the way up.

Track prep at OSW has been really good under new ownership (and the weather Weds should be good).

Great time. These trap speeds are horrible though. Even 123 is abysmal. There 450rwhp traps not 580.

Nice pass... The two lanes are about 3 mph apart imo... So your 121 prolly was more like 124

Great driving. Nice 60ft. Not so great mph. My first pass ever in my C6Z06 at 95 degrees was 127mph.
