Default Ran 12.4 at 115.72

Hey guys...

For my first time WITH the z06 to the track. I did pretty good. 12.4 at 115.72 2.07 60 ft. Stock tires and all. Only MOD is a GHL catback. Thats IT. Not bad at all considering this was at Long Island Dragway (Long Island Guys will tell you how bad this track is). Prep wasnt good at all. Lots of guys were complaining. I know I can do better. I know at englishtown and atco ill be able to put down a 1.9 maybe a 1.8 60 ft. Id like to run a LOW LOW 12.

Long Island Dragway is garbage buts its all we have somewhat close to us. Unfortunately they might be closing down too SOON. Its a week to week thing. The declared they were closed this year. But again its all in the AIR. I wish a new owner would come and just fix that track and keep it open.

-Zee

:cheers:

WOW! Some Z06 drivers at our local dragway can't seen to get any quicker than 12.9

I have seen stock z06's run 12.0's and 11's with a good driver on a prepped track but you are definitely on the high end of the MPH scale. If you get down to E-town or Atco you should be in the low 12's high 11's.
