You're gonna have to keep that power planted. After the Corvette Homecoming last weekend they had some drags at Beech Bend. Saw a C4 earlier at the show on the dyno that was giving a 75 shot. He didn't really fair that well at the drags because he couldn't keep from spinning his tires too much.

Power "under the curve", rather than all at the top end, will do that!

Good question, I have'nt timed mine yet, waiting for new clutch. My luck, I'll blow out the factory clutch on my first run.
