I should have waited. Don't know how humid it was at the track but visibility was a little hazey or foggy so the humidity had to be fairly high. Weatherunderground said only 73% but don't know where that is recorded.

yeah I typically get as many runs as I want on sundays.
I think the track in sealy is closed right now...so all the sealy guys are coming out here maybe.
Other than that I have no idea why so many last night...it isnt like the air was that great...

I would like to be added to the list.
I guess I have to be external engine mods because I have mufflers
1.98 60'
5.49 330'
8.30 1/8 @ 89mph
10.7 1000'
12.74 1/4 @ 112mph
2007 A6 with borla stinger mufflers (stock h-pipe)
DA was ~1000 with 75 degrees, 75% humidity and pressure around 30.15
Edit - if you need the 330, 1/8th and 1000' taken to the 1000th then I will post it up when I get home to the slip...the 1/4 was 12.74 though.
Edit x2 - not to be picky, but these two guys are in reversed order
11.98 @ 116.44 - C6speedjon - 07 Z51 M6 -CAI, catback, headers, ported intake, TB, tune Dr
11.94 @ 117.99 - JimSpeed - 06 Z51 M6 - CAI, catback, headers

And Stingers are known to be pretty good too, some might even argue that they offer the ever so slightest of advantages over stock as well.
But congrats either way.

I wasnt trying to make an argument to get into the stock list...just grumbling that I shouldnt have changed the mufflers until I pushed the car as far as I could stock 
Maybe in the dead of winter I'll swap the stockers back on to make a few passes and see how high I can get on the stock list.

Good meeting you too Rich. And welcome to Houston! Hope to see you again. Did you get in another pass? Track sure was crowded last night. I might have gotten an 11.7? had I been able to make another pass. Wanted to richen it a tad to eliminate the KR and try again but not with the long, long wait.
Patrick, Cooler air should give me a little more. Ready for it too! I ran the ac on the way to the track last night.
Tony B4, Yes, I consider my tune safe for street. I would not run with TM disabled however. And as I've metioned I need to bump up my AFR just a tad at the upper rpms.

Nice run!
Send me a PM the next time your heading down there and I'll try to make it. I haven't ran at HRP so it would be nice to have some "locals" to pick up tips from.

Would be fun to meet up or even with a group of locals from Corvette Forum. Next time I go out the air has to be better than last night though. Hopefully some nitrous air coming soon.

2008 1LT
A6
Standard suspension
2.73 gear, NPP exhaust
factory run flat radials
Headers, CAI, tune, tstat, Z51 rear bar
First pass of the night (11.894 et) is w/TM enabled. Second TM disabled. Logged minimal KR in the upper rpm. Need to add a little fuel there but this is about the best this automatic is going to do with a 77* IAT w/73% humidity. Unless I can find a way to eliminate launch TM. No loss of traction noted on either pass.

Tommy does a magnificent job of maintaining that list and does everything he can to maintain it's integrity.
