That info is not on the slips, I think I could have gone faster but the Z51 tires are not to good in the cold weather, it was in the 30's with a strong cross-wind.

Just got back from the track.

I have a base model vette. 6 spd.
4.10 gears, Kooks 1 3/4" headers, Lingenfelter CAI, Cartek Mailorder tune, Borla Catback and 160 degree Tstat, Stock tires can't remember which ones but they are not that sticky.

I ran a best of 12.378 @ 117.67 with a 2.001 60 ft.

I also ran a few 12.40s.

I launched it pretty much at idle and I had a lot wheel spin in second gear.

Yup, don't I know it........... two weeks of emails (everybody knows not to send work related emails to me) and everything else. It would be interesting to see how much faster a stock Vette could go after you and Jim put your driving skills together

I think this one might need to go on the CAI list instead, it has a Vararam.
Sorry Dennis

It may have had at least some tuning to remove torque management as well.

We did have an impromptu race that I can't really go into details on (forum rules). I can tell you this. We are pretty much dead even up to around 115mph, then his coupe starts to pull away a little - at least in the one "event" we have had.

First try with the C6

Saturday's best was 12.3 @ 114 with a 2.1 sixty on runflats. I ran 12.6, 12.6 12.5 and 12.3 all between 110 and 114.

I have headers and no tune, check engine light on. The car will easily run 11's with only headers with stickier tires tires, I had a passenger so I couldn't bring them. If I were patient, I think I might be able to get it into the 11's with the runflats, but I'm not patient...I only have 4 passes on the car and 400 miles....
I have to admit, it was tougher to launch than my C5 Z06, the runflats are simply awful. I was disappointed with my times. Especially when I ran a 12.6 on my frst pass @ 110. I'll try the ET Streets next week.
The car felt like a slug out there, but then again my C5 ran 11.3's.
