I pulled a 6.0 the second time I tried this, I haven't done it on the bottle yet. My headers and intake are going on in the next couple weeks so I'll have to try it again after that.

I think you really need to add the legend to post #2 so people know what the parameters are.
Driver / Year / Z51(Y/N/Z06) / M7/A8 / Estimated RWHP / Temp *F / ET 40-100mph
I'd also consider moving it near the top of post #1 for easy of finding and keeping track of it. There's too much convoluted chatter in the 8 pages of this post... I think the desire to make this somewhat of a sticky will be lost. I still think this is a great thread and would love to see it grow.

40-100 time converted to quarter mile time
I was able to run the quarter at Atlanta Dragway 5 19 18 and log 40-100 mph time at same time. 5.7 40-100 times equaled 11.82@119. DA 3000.

Tried just once. Shifted soso. 5.6 at 95 ambient on a 570 rwhp z51 with stage 3 aero. But I also don't think my car is making past 500 wheel right now. Could probably hit 5.0 in cooler weather, nolift shift and no air brakes attached. Z51 has much better gearing for this test.

How has the engine done over these 3 years with E85? I really want to add the sensor to my car but I have to find a new tuner for this. I have two gas stations very close to me that sell E85.

I ran pure e85 in my c6a6 for 30000 miles with over 338 quarter mile passes with no drop in performance ,oil consumption, or change in mileage. Just installed e85 on my c7a8

Tried my first run at this tonight....
Got a 4.8 with a pretty lazy 2-3 shift and severe traction issues on the hit in second. Looking forward to trying it some more and hope to get a good pull.

How do you start the pdr before logging a pull?

A&A V3 Si on 3.8” pulley
Texas Speed 1 7/8” catless headers
LT4 fuel pump
Gonna try a straight 3rd gear pull from 40-100. Traction in second is non existent when it’s nice boost weather even if I start at a lower speed as soon as I get around peak torque it breaks loose. I was doing some 60-100 testing a couple nights back and got a 3.3 all in 3rd.
