Default NEW 1/4 Mile Record - Corvette With IRS - Keith Berry



VIDEO

Keith Berry sets a NEW world record in the 1/4 mile for a Corvette with Independent Rear Suspension... 8.32 @ 16x mph

This may be the BEST sounding LS-based motor that I've heard!

Simmer down Fartpipe. .. We will be ready in a few months. I think going faster than an 8.5x will be very hard with a six speed transmission. We will try like hell. We will have the HP to get into the 8.5x area but 8.3x is gettin it done! !! CONGRATULATIONS KEITH. LETS SEE THE 7.XX

I've been trying to find a rundown of the setup, but haven't found it yet...

I do know that it hits a max of 9200-9800 RPM...

2X that!!

Edit; Just in case you guy's didn't notice,those runs were made at Milan Dragway. I need to check this dude out...will contact some of the heavy hitter in this area to see what they know.

Looks like a 427 with WCCH All Pro heads, PI intake, .831" intake lift and it presently has a carb, not a throttle body.

Congrats to all involved in that deal, WOOOO!
