Very impressive with just those mods which really only amount to nothing more than a tune and drag radials, since the mufflers probably gave you nothing in the way of performance.

New best for me as well:
60'......1.89
1/8th...8.03
MPH.....89.76
1/4......12.35
MPH.....113.66
Did a 12.40@113.22 as well.
Yes, the air was obviously very good, car has some more miles on it now and is still a stock A6.

Very very nice Marc! I have been waiting for you to finally run again and I knew it would go 12.3s or better!
What was the DA when you ran? I'm racing today and the DA is going to be about -1000 ft here!! The barometer is 30.5 and still going up, and the forecast high is only 40F (it's only 23F right now!) I'm hoping to finally run 12.9s today in my C5.

A few more weeks of fun before the tracks close. Glad you're making the most of it.

Great run last night. I was very impressed. I still think if the track did not start to go away, you could have ran 12.2x. ( Last pass was at 30 degrees F. )
Nice to meet a fellow vette owner.

You are at that point now with just mufflers and a tune and on an engine which has been in the C6 for a while, known to be dependable, and with several tuning and aftermarket options available to it..
But still 12.150 on a car which has had nothing but a new set of mufflers welded to it, drag radials and tune is pretty darn quick in the quarter mile.

You were really moving. Were you on street tires, drag radials, ET Streets?

But all that good air comes with a price, track and tires were VERY cold making my normally easy to race Corvette a bit more of a challenge to hook up. You will definitely see 12s in that air Patman, my friend Rob (Jersey C5) was running with us last night in his stock (well he just added the zip tie mod the day before, computer hadn't fully learned it in yet I bet) well optioned 2004 C5 automatic with 2.73s
and he ran a 12.92@107mph backed up by a 12.93 so you WILL do (your car is likely more 'broken in' too, his has 22k on it I think) it especially if you get at least a few chances/runs in.

I might be able to squeeze a 12.29999 out of this car with better traction (my best sixty foot back in March was a 1.88, best last night was a 1.89) or installing a lighter driver
but I honestly don't believe it can physically run any quicker than that without some programming and a lower temp thermostat (which I might try in the coming months).

You did great too Gary, I really did not want to see you go home with a 12.01 (I've seen it happen to others too many times and have even done it once or twice in my Z28 and it's so frustrating LOL) but you will see an 11 out of that stock Z06 soon.
