1100 Order Placed at Dealership
No way to tell from a 1xxx series code. Your dealer does not have an allocation for your order yet. Your order is just sitting in the system waiting for the allocation to be awarded. The order is not accepted by Chevrolet until you get to the 2xxx codes. You need to ask your dealer when they expect to get the allocation. Also ask them how many total allocation slots they have, and which one is yours. Be vary wary if they won't give you a straight answer.

Unfortunately there is no one answer to that question. Your order will only advance from 1100 when your dealer has an allocation available.
What dealer? Do you know if they have initial allocations for 2014 Corvettes?

If you don't have a dealer with current allocation call Rick Conti at Coughlin, near Columbus Ohio. He has 20 allocations coming on the next consensus. I have been dealing with him and can recommend, he is a friend to the Corvette community along with a straight up person.
His number is: CELL/TEXT 740-739-8377
His web is: http://www.corvetteconti.com/blog/
He sells at MSRP, no games....

The nine allocations are for the next nine months of the initial Stingray launch. Simple math tells me that he will see about one car per month. You may be waiting about six months before your order gets accepted.

Last consensus was on 9/5/13. Dealers that received allocation have until tomorrow to get thier orders prioitized. You are right, the next consensus is on 9/19/13.

And I, too, agree with the above comments - on Rick Conti at Coughlin. Call him NOW - he's a great guy, and he'll take care of you. He's a dealer you'll find you can trust.
I, too, had the "1100 crisis" underway - and finally realized I was being jacked-around. Do yourself a favor - get your C7 ordered from a dealer who can actually 'deliver'.
