Congratulations!! Great Job, I know you were after a 9 second slip and with "Outstanding MPH". It looks like 1 3/4" headers with the rest of the combo "GOT-ER DONE" big time.

Stabilitrac would actually flicker on from time to time with the M/T 28" drag radials when I would hit bumps or accelerate hard. The M/T were also way heavier than the hoosiers and Nitto 555Rs. The Nitto's (26" tall) were ok but inconsistent at the track, they work good for the street. No issues with the Hoosiers.

my issue was probably not having tpms on the rear now that i think of it. Guess ill have to invest in a pair for my racestar's. Thanks for the input.

Why would not having the TPMS installed matter?

not sure. Might make no difference. Just a guess. Just first time i had stabilitrac light/service rear axle light come on. turned off when i put my 20's back on. I don't claim to know anything mechanical. I pay to play and dont work on my own car or even change the wheels myself.

I have what I'm pretty sure is the new M7 record since the LMR car that went 9.48 on the fastest list is indeed an automatic car and was entered wrong.
Year of the C7: 2014
Tires used on the pass:275/60/15 Nitto 555R
Performance Mods (if any): Stock LT4, Futral motorsports cam, stock heads, Procharger intake, F1a 15#, 2" headers, Ignite e90, Deatschwerks fuel system, Centerforce dyad clutch, stock diff, stock trans, non Z51 car, Cordes performance tuned.

Finally got the trans redone and went back to the track tonight. Mods were about the same other than the addition of the 103 TB and MSD manifold.

Turns out the new trans build has issues with 2nd gear slipping as you can see in the log

Still managed two new personal bests out of 2 runs before getting booted for not having an NHRA license, despite having a 4pt and full suit with gloves. That **** gets old

And the new #3 spot missing #2 by .01

I left under 3000rpm despite a 3400 stall and don't have the nitrous ramping in fully till 4000rpm because of the conditions. Track prep would let me get the 60' down and second gear holding would easily put this into the deep 9s
