I really couldn't care less what you can run other than for the continuous amusement of seeing people spewing a bunch of sh*t on the internet about a car that would absolutely kick their *** down a track.


But... but... the track was SUPER DUPER PREPPED!!!

Uh oh! Demon has a big problem: new Corvette = "so? Demon is for drag times"

Uh oh! Corvette has a big problem: Demon runs 9s ="GM are you listening?"

Those darn double standards.

Are you just one of those guys who looks at times on the internet and has never stepped foot on a track , or have you actually raced on a track?
Because I'm very confident that the demon will easily run 9.6's on the track conditions of the Infamous ranger rental MIR runs, everybody is a half second faster at MIR... demon might go 9.20's at MIR on a ranger rental.

Hey, That's where the "stock" C7/Z07 record was set!

C6 Z record as well, remember those "How to run 10''s in a stock Z06" videos that were trying to be sold to us.
If you want to make record runs that is the place to do it, especially at a ranger track rental, he would do all his homework with temps, Da's and of course VHT the track to better than NHRA standards.
Runs still count, but everyone knows they are a half second faster there in anything they drive, especially on a ranger rental, he left no stone unturned

I changed my clutch fluid via the "ranger method" with my stock C6Z but could never run 10's with it.

You should know by now that corvette owner's are the only ones allowed to quote hero times in mine-shaft air.

ahh the gold old turkey baster method..... I though it was good for 3ths each time you basted?, you must have used a turkey baster from Walmart , you needed to use the Wolf gang puck signature series

I for one don't doubt that the Demon can run a 9.6, but the 9.6 that it did run was in "Ranger rental" conditions. That run was in -1200DA air with a 1.3 60' time which means there was some good prep.

You just love to discredit any time from a MIR rental.
My best time from a Ranger Rental @MIR = 10.85@130mph. (DA -300)
My best time from a +100 car non Ranger Rental @ Virginia Motorsports Park (4 years later) = 10.96@128mph (DA -100)

Not really a 1/2 sec difference.

If you go back and read my post I said quote "runs still count" how is that a discredit?
Regardless, you have just stated that you did a ranger rental at MIR, you also did one at union grove in the winter which I thought was nuts, that track is horrendous in season, prep is always garbage (which is why the rental was so cheap) .... more power to you .
You can't deny that even novice drivers are faster on those rentals.
Most people average .5 seconds faster on that track, it's just fact.
A .5 second difference is huge on a 1/4 drag strip IMO, especially when you are trying to go from 11's-10's, 10's-9's, 9's-8's etc in those cases(and I think allot of people will agree with me that .1 is all the difference in the world.
How many people have gone home from the strip pissed because they went 11.0 instead of 10.9 etc, I know I've gone home many times pissed being so close .
