I was so shocked to see that '21' come up on the board Dennis but I really shouldn't have been, I still think there's even some 11.1s (or lower? ) in the car as well, and that trap speed DAMN!

sure Spin this is how i would drive it. with your mods i would come off at 4500-5000 rpm i would look at the tach the whole time on launch ride the clutch so the rpm would never drop under 5000 rpm once going i would preload shifter while dead to the floor, never letting of the throttle, tap the corner of the clutch just enough to disengage first gear, sling shot to second, then side step and repeat. if the offer still stands sure i will drive it

Yours is still officially the highest but I think Barry's QTP/Cartek 6 speed manual LS3 did hit 122+ on one of it's passes a few weeks ago as well.

I think some columnist from one of those Corvette magazines should do a write up on his achievments with the LS2 . Hopefully someone will take notice .

With any quality product (such as our beloved Corvette) there are always minor improvements/updates that are often performed even on excellent designs such as the VR. The beneficiary of that is of course the buyer of said products so it's refreshing to see that Vararam is staying on top of that.
