Default 0-100 mph

My local track is only 1/8th mile. Being so, I only get a ET slip for that distance. I thought it might be fun to compare some 0-100 mph times from the PDR.
It shows 1/4 mile ET, but isn't correct as I was hard on the brakes after going thru the beams.
Anyway I've been working on it and have got it down from a little over high 5 secs to 4.7secs. Anyone else want to share?

That has to be your modded car?
I think I'd have a REALLY long way to go to get those times on a pure stock OEM ZO6
(or do I just have a really slow one )

Car is heavily modded. Launch= Tour mode TC off. Come up against the converter and release brake at just the right time. Hit the 100hp shot just after the launch. 18X12 beadlocks with MT Street R's at 14 psi.
