I should take time and make a sig,
I have a hurricane intake, 170 therm, corsa exhaust, west coast corvette headers, msd wires,x pipe and tune, I was also running bfg drag radials but I never saw any good 60 ft's. I need to practice the corvette is different than what i'm used to.

I couldn't even hook up in 4wd. You might want to try out a tnt Famoso event. They actually prep the track

I am out of town for two more weeks with the Air Force. The time slips are in the car not with me like the vidoe. I figure the video would be enough proof for anyone, not that I really have anything to prove. I don't see anyone else's times being questioned. I guess it's hard to believe that a vert can be as fast as a stock Z-06. I will GLADLY post the slips when I get home if it will make you happy.

The usual way is to document fast times. As of now you haven't done that and your conflicting claims haven't done much to give them credibility. Perhaps a video will do that.

My 60 ft still sucked. I ran a 12.44 at 114, the guy in the mustang actually laughed at me when we were staging because he knew he could beat a corvette, but to his suprise I GOT THE LIGHT! I know my vette has a low 12 or high 11 in her but I need to master driving it.!

You were asked to post them a couple weeks ago, after you floated all over the place on the mods on the car and then needed three tries to get the date of the event right. And that was after the actual ET and trap were revised. So who's to say what's correct? It was a very simple thing to post the slips and resolve the questions. Very simple and ordinary thing to do. Done regularly on most CF boards for significant claims. I even offered to post them for you, but you never replied.

I haven't done anything to my heads. Here is everything I have done so you can compare. The last Dyno run was 462 RWHP and 453 RWT
what are the other cam "only" LS2 owners making on the dyno? these are unprecedented numbers, by far, if the mod list is accurate.

Long Tube Headers, High Flow Cats, X-pipe, Borla Touring Exhaust, Hurricane Air Intake, LSX "Fast" fuel Intake, Dual Valve Springs, Custom Ground Competition Cam from Jeff Creech, Underdrive Reduction Pulleys, 160 Degree Thermostat, Custom Tune with Dyno Run also by Jeff Creech. I know 462 RWHP seems like a lot but it's the truth, Jeff's remark was that I got a great piece from the factory and that it was abnormal giving my mods
. Feel free to contact Jeff at CAM and have him email you my dyno sheet if you wish. Those guys have several cars making some crazy numbers and we all ran very well at the challenge.

It looks like it went through after I shrank the file size below 5 MB. PLEEEAAAASSSSSEEE Post it so people will believe in the power of the vert!! This pass has a lower MPH than the other one by a mph or so but the time is 11.49 and is clearly visible. I had to spot the other car 1.3 seconds and I broke out so it actually shows him winning in spite my faster pass. Thanks again!!
