Unless he hates you and then it doesnt matter if you follow the rules.

Soon the list will be meaningless without all the good LS3 times.

If you post following Tommy's rules you will be added to the list. Everyone will be treated the same and envy/hate/mistrust will not be a factor.

How will you feel when I finally get some video of my car running the same times nov 24?

I really dont want to spend $60 calling out internet haters but Ill probably go a third time on the stock tune just to prove the douchebags wrong.
we wont know if it is stock because you still haven't put down you have a 160 stat and why do you keep putting yourself on the list twice when you get done the 24th will you be on 3 times

What good are 1/4 mile list rules if they are not enforced impartially?

Oh there's not much hatin' or even doubting that your car, along with the mods that you're claiming to have on it, has generated the time slips that you have presented.
I do believe that all to be the case.
But c'mon man you're a drag racer, you've already gone fast in other cars so you know what's up, you HAVE TO admit that your 119mph+ trap speeds are seriously out of line with some of the reality we've all taken for granted for so long. Yes the better air/altitude is a factor but look at jbsblownC5's car with headers and tuning, your car almost out trapped his and that's a typically much higher trapping MANUAL trans with some serious mods.
Even though you (and your track's timing equipment) may very well be COMPLETELY legit, being the experienced track guy that you are you still have to understand where some of these doubts may be coming from, no?

Yeah but jblown is racing at a track that friends of mine have raced and when the DA is 3000 compared to ~0 at sac the times/traps go down .2-.4 and 2-4mph. That would explain the differences wouldnt it?

Well Ill be getting more data end of this month, so I guess we will see what happens.

It would explain some of it yes, I guess we'd need to know what the DA was when he ran that 11.8 at 119.9.
But even if he ran at 3000 feet and would've trapped say 2-4mph higher than he did at Fontana (123+mph?, it's possible I guess) at your track the day you trapped 119.5, it still might not fully explain where ALL of the benefits offered by the headers, the Vararam, the tuning, the (normally higher trapping) manual trans went to.

Come on man...I was actually trying to stick up for you in the beginning of all of this but you're just getting silly about it now.

Give it a rest.

For many here, dare I say the majority here, reliability, credibility and integrity are the key ingredients for any well respected fast list.

Tommy's list, originally conceived by forum member zippin zee, is better than two years old http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1214565

It has and continues to withstand the test of time, and is the current standard here for good reason.

It is THE LIST on this board, and with this being the largest C6 forum on the internet, is no doubt widely regarded as being one of the standard references for C6 quarter mile times on the world wide web as well. And quite possibly is only rivaled by dragtimes.com for finding C6 quarter mile time references.

It is perhaps the largest known single reference of C6 quarter mile times anywhere. And with Tommy taking steps to strengthen even further the credibliity of that list, by requiring time slips and other information now,

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...postcount=2037

it will very likely gain even more of a strong hold. Indeed, a couple people, with '08s and reported times, from your list, are not on his because they did not submit time slips after he requested them.

To give you a small example of the significance of this list, forum vendors have been, for a long time now, and are continuing, to attempt to use Tommy's list as a marketing tool by getting their entries on it. Either openly or not so openly.

Forum members here have long taken the approach that if you run a good time and you want it known about, this is the thread where it is posted. This is true for regular forum members and vendors as well. And is why Callaway, and a few others, either overtly or covertly, have been in such a hurry getting their cars, or cars modified with their products, on it.


Good luck with the list attached to your signature. But I am betting on Tommy's list, which is a sticky thread and is heading into it's third year, remaining "meaningful" for a long time.

LS3 TOP 15

Hey, I for one, do NOT appreciate seeing your LS3 hit list on this C6 1/4 Mile Performance Challenge thread. Why dont you create your OWN thread, entitled "LS3 TOP 15" or whatever, and leave this thread to the C6 1/4 mile Performance Challenge. I got no problems with LS3's, just with you butting in here on this thread with your own list.
