Not to bring this thread back to life, but I'm getting closer to beating my stock time. I ran 11.72 at 122.xx now with either a high 1.9 or a low 2.0 60'. I can't remember and don't have my slips at work.

If I could get my launch better I'm sure it'll really go down.

I did have the satisfaction of beating a ZO6 that 11.72 run. Although his MPH was 124 mph, I beat him by .03. Then he smoked me on the next run as I lost traction 3/4 of the way through first gear...

Track got really slippery.

Camaross621 was there as well. He hit an 11.42 @126mph off of a freak launch. The next run we tied et and mph both with bad 60's (11.93 @ 120.xx)

I think I'll go to Atco or Englishtown soon to hopefully show an et improvement lol

I'm also thinking that the runflat tires offered better traction over the non-runflats I have. However, the non-runflats have offered much better cornering.

Andrew,

A local buddy of mine wanted to rent out Englishtown relatively soon for a Saturday. About 100 bucks a person. I might be interested if the nitrous is finished

You will likely see 11.5s (maybe even an 11.4) with no other changes to the car before 2008 is over.

It would be pretty sweet to get kicked out for not having a roll cage... even though I'd want to stay lol.

Just curious.....

Why do LS3 owners go to the Z06 exhaust? What is the difference? I thought it was a tip difference and that was it?

Its 3" (2.5" stock) from the H-pipe back until right at the muffler where it necks down to 2.5" like they all do. Its probably worth a few ponies.

Oh ok, so its not just the mufflers that are changed. The H-pipe back is swapped to Z06.

Thanks.
