Have you ever ran the car with street tires? If so what time are you getting?

That's not to bad. I'm trying to break into 11's with street tires. It's very difficult lol

I went 11.45 on street tires with my 08Z. Keep practicing the Ranger's launch techniques. I'm sticking to my bracket car. It's a lot easier to drive down the strip.

Damn that's good! Good read on the rangers method. I only got to run the car once. It's only an ls2 with nitrous but was trying to get at least 11.99. I will be better prepared for the next track day. My problem was no traction because I didn't have my window switch just a wide open throttle switch. I now have a window switch and will lock out first gear so hopefully I'll see some high 11's on street tires.

I believe Ranger's best on street tires is 11.1 with Jamie Furman being the only one to go 10s (10.98) in a bone stock C6 Z06.
The best ET in a bone stock C6 Z06 with a just a rear wheel/tire swap (drag radials) is Ranger's 10.71@130mph.

I've broke into the 11's one time with stock tires. I did have an intake and tune.

Marc- Actually John went 11.02. Unfortunately he had a large amount of wheelspin on the 1-2 shift. It could be heard in the vid.
