C6 1/4 Mile Performance Challenge

Did he have a lot of wheel spin at the launch?





Two other guys and myself met Christopher (Subfloor) for a day at the Sacramento track. The trip odometer showed 1751 miles since Friday morning, but the drive, the company, and the results were worth it. I'll let the others tell their experiences, so here's mine.
My first pass was a 10.95 and then it got better. I made 12 full passes, with 10 of them below 11 flat. The best is the one for the list, of course.
Thanks Tommy for keeping the list going and for the encouragement I've had from everyone.

I'll drive up and root you on buddy! And if you buy a wideband and borrow Jeremys cord I can tweak your tune at the strip. It helps believe me. Have them throw in a wideband this week as the weather doesnt look good this week.
Hoxxoh, fantastic runs! I get updates when subfloor posts videos....wow you were putting down some times, over and over again. Way to go!!!
What was the DA?And your dedication to drive 1800 miles to race is incredible. That is dedication. I tip my hat to you, you earned those slips.

What are your mods? Your profile says "a whole bunch more". Do you really NOT have headers?? That is amazing!! Do you have a fast?

LMAO!!! 102mph in the 1/8 without a cam?!?! Red flag! Lololololol!!!

Was it a -2000ft da? Any less just doesn't add up?

Either way nice run know matter what.

(Just noticed it was an LS3, not an LS2, Congrats!!!!)

The LS3 makes more senseYou would probably need -1000 da.
But there is a big difference between -199 and -799. Jeremy Preston told me that for his NHRA Vette racecar he uses .01 for each 100 DA change when dialing. That works out pretty accurately for my car too actually.
Boy we all really split hairs don't we.

The bad thing is his best run of the day was his last.....a 10.814 !!!!

Why is it bad ? The woman running the time slip shack had shut down the equipment prior to his run...therefore, there is no paper evidence of the run other than the 3 CF eyewitness'.

I have personally made passes where the board read 11.3 and it was an 11.7. I've had incorrect boards at two different tracks in Houston (Houston Raceway Park and Lonestar Motorsports Park).
I know the car moves out, and I completely believe the 10 second runs. I was just adding that in there.

If there's no paper slip to back it up he couldn't post it up. He took the correct approach and posted the slip for his best "documented" run.

I run about 30 mph in the back half being a manual.

23 in the back half seems too slow...and 102 mph seems too high. I wonder if the timer screwed up on the 102.
But looking at another vid, he's running 101 on a 10.92!
Hoxxoh, what gears do you have in that car?
