C7Z did best of 155 on Sunday, mostly low 150s. So on a good cool run ~3mph faster than a c6z, and on a hot lap same as a c6z. Or c7z=hellcat is another way to look at it.

so these were rolling 1/2 mile or standing start? Looks to be rolling which alters numbers.

Lambo's UGR TT X-Edition here in FL did 234mi from a standing start in 1/2 mile back in January. Absolutely insane. Get a GoPro and you can shoot great video. I mounted it on my car and had a field day hitting 160s on street tires with boost leak.

Here's the other retarded cars from the event I ran at...

Rolling. Can't compare any of these events, because they are all different, at difference places. Only good to compare to cars on same day/weekend.

I had 2 go pros on the car most of the day, and almost all the video is crap. What little good video I have is in the middle of 2GB files that I don't have software to edit. 3/4 of the time the cameras would blow over at 150+ so you just got shots of the sky or pavement.

Car was hooking good. Looks like it has some decent squat.

Wow, Nick great runs. I am glad that the car worked well. I missed your call on Friday. I will call this week to catch up.

Your car has turned out awesome. I remember when you first did the Black Mamba cam....not that long ago in time but about twice as much power now.

The GoPro mouting clamp and using a screwdriver to tighten the clamps and she doesn't move. Took these runs to just over 170mph before shutting down and shot good video outside car. I was annoyed about being down 4psi thanks to leak but whatever...

Just go to the second half of the video (30 second mark)

Go Pro wasn't my camera, borrowed it. First time using one. Didn't want to mess with it. One good race where it didn't move all it did was take a still photo instead of video. Ohh well.

Was wondering if that was your car in the videos Joe posted.

What roll speed did you guys start from?

~30-40ish. I wasn't really ever paying attention, just focused on trying to stay even with other car.

It was warm and a good head wind for a lot of the day.

Anyways, it was fun. Come out and do these events. They are awesome.

I wonder if RPM has a 9" for 6 speed conversion.

^^We got our own 1/3 mile event coming up at end of May. Traction here should be much better as its at a local track. We hoping to hit 170+mph in 1/3 mile. We'll see!

170+ in 1/3 mile would be pretty crazy fast. It all just depends on track/weather/traction/etc. At least shifting to 5th won't be an issue.

They can. Vengeance proved that, just takes more than 1000rwhp to do, good weather, awesome track, and everything to align.

Pretty impressive! Nice runs. What was the elevation there? What RPM do you take 4th too? Any idea on what your car weighs?
