Default Any C6 1/2 mile speed lists out there?

Just got back from the #noflyzone provided by Omegamotorsports in Rantoul, IL and beat my personal best of 164.5mph last year and managed a 170.3mph pass today.

Not sure, but I'm trying to find out if this is a world record for a stock block N/A Corvette Z06?

Mods I've got done are:

2" ARH headers with ORX
Straightlineperformance Lumberjack cam
MSD Atomic Intake Manifold
Nick William 102mm
Custom Head work bumping up compression to 12.5cr
HPI 80lb Injectors and running E85

Problem with 1/2 miles compared to an actual drag strip is there is so much variation. Rolling start vs standing, track conditions vary wildly, prep, etc. I've seen consistent cars run 8-9mph different from one venue to the next. So while you can track down some records, they don't mean all that much.

Nice run! I'm not sure on the "stock block N/A Corvette" record but a friend of mine re set his own record and went 217.39

I assume that these speeds are from a roll and not a dig.
