Ecs 1500 m6-9.84@143mph
Big thanks to all the parties helping out. Mr. Fix It(Bill, 5litereater) is about as good as there is around. I guess not only being a mechanical engineer by trade, but knowing his stuff goes a long way. Also, I would like to thank Joe(username), Bryan(Flash), Inspector12(Jeff), Wally(Auto Adrenaline), Mike(Gforce), Steve at RSD, and Gabe Rodriguez/Jason Theriot for putting the motor/fuel system together and getting the motor in tact and being loyal friends through hard times.
Wally fixed a ton of the issues on the tune, and fixed parts of the fuel system including a couple big leaks. Car ran extremely hard with his tune, and it drove fantastic after that. Ran 10.0 with a strong headwind. Had a debt to pay for a balancer and needed one. While at Gforce to pick one up, I had Mike go ahead and weld in a new bung to read the A/F out of the motor. Leaned it out a bit since I didn't have one ready for Wally.
I took the car out 3 weeks ago for a test and tune. First pass hot off the street was a 10.08. Made 2 more passes, but missed shifts. 60fts stayed solid though, at 1.60-1.62's.
Tonight, I made back to back passes. 10.06 and a 10.07 when I hotlapped. Figured that we would let the car cool off, and add another 1-2 degrees of timing up from 16(meth, built motor on 12psi). Mike from Gforce nailed it down on the tune, and back I strapped back in. And wamb, here it is.
(#3565 with me, 402, Novi 1500@12psi, full street trim with Fbody wheels on drag radials, 100% stock C6(non Z06) rearend, etc).
And the 10.0 passes.
All in all, I'm very happy with the car. I made the #1 spot for a c6 M6(non Z06/ZR1) car, and have only about 20 passes in the car, and 6-7 with the new motor. No weight reduction, stock wheels(heavy fbody wheels out back), and an additional weight of the roll bar. I would love to have a track rental some time with a negative DA, but unlikely here. Also, another thanks to Mike at Gforce to helping me adjust the car slightly last night. Makes a big difference in this game.

Mark can drive thats for sure.
Glad to have been able to help out to help him achieve this and it was great to have been there to see it.Here is my Drift camera on Mark's car for the 9.8 pass. Go all the way to the end for when he picks up his timeslip.

AWESOME MAN!!! Congrats....Outstanding time/mph!
I can't believe your rear end is still going.... I have been to the track twice with my car and it has come home on a flatbed both times....
Damn I was gonna going out to RPR last night too just to spectate.... I wish I could have come and met up with y'all....

Congrats Mark thats moving for sure and making use of your power for sure! There are a lot of people that have made more and ran considerably slower! Joe I know he has the Mcleod RXT clutch not sure on the tires looks like Mickey's DR, I couldn't make them out in the Video's etc...
