Very good ETs ....just wondering why your Mph at the 1/8th mi is so low....we are running the same ETs and my 1/8 Mph is 108 mph....I have not had the chance to run a 1/4 mi as our track is only 1/8...... I am curious to know what I will do in 1/4 mi.... nice car and times....enjoy and have fun...
He's running N/A LT1 bolt-on only. His mph is flying for that setup. He is the fastest LT1 Bolton for sure my car ran 99.50mph 1/8 N/A Bolton only.

So whats the secret of running 129mph on a bolton LT1 C7? thats a ~550-600whp car trap speed All that I've seen are running 120-123mph max with boltons/tune.

E85 and a proper tune IMO.
The 3.42's might also have something to do with it.

Yonks8365, have you upgraded rear diff or axles yet? I just got MT's for my car on 18's last week and hoping to head to the track Saturday. I'm in an M7 and a little scared of launching hard and breaking but we'll find out.

I have not upgraded rear diff or axels yet. Axels will be my next mod for sure. Right now my car is getting port injection. I'm definitely very nervous about both breaking when I get the car back since I should be around 1000rwhp. I'm getting my car ready for a half mile event. So when I go to the track to test I will be coming off the line pretty easy until I replace axels and diff. Is there a upgraded rear diff available for the a8? I feel like I've read more about manuals breaking the rear diff more so than autos but I could definitely be wrong on that.
I called RPM transmission a couple days ago and they are still working on a C7 rear diff solution with wavetrac guts. They said it should be ready in a few weeks. I'm only about 90 min from there and hope to be a test mule. I'd like to have it in before the NC half mile as well. Mine is a base without the e-LSD rear end. I'll keep everyone posted as I get more info.

Image of complete Time Slip:
Was a very weird run. My slowest trap of the day, but my fastest ET. I was generally trapping 130-132mph which still seemed slow for my mods. Need to do some data logging.
All that I've seen are running 120-123mph max with boltons/tune.
