Default New best for me!!!
I went to the track tonight after doing the Halltech TRAP. WOW.

My best time before was a 13.0 but I was only able to hit that once, and my average had been around 13.4

I have a pretty much stock C5, the Halltech TRAP, Borla Stingers, 165 thermostat, star stage II clutch, and street tires (Khumo Supra 712)

I ran a best of 12.7!!!! WHOOO HOOOO! im excited.
These are the full time specs...:

2.094
5.547
8.359
87.719
10.754
12.780
111.988

Nice job man. I ran a 12.9 on runcraps with just exhaust on my first C5. It takes a little work. You can get lower with your tires. Just think if you have a 12.5 sec stock motor C5 in street shoes....very cool. Next I would throw a cam and some 4:10 gears in that thing and you will be in the 11's.
