13.50's @ 100+ first run
I know its not breaking any land speed records 
, but was proud of a car that can get almost 28 mpg and cruise comfortably at 70mph.
Its a 04 Vert with 3.15 - no mods - I was expecting a high 13/ low 14. Also cut a 0.530 light on my one an only pass - its been 8 years since I have been at the track (Other car is 11 sec Nova, last run at the track was 1997).
Got the bug now - thinking about LS6 in Nova
- Can't afford another vette yet to dedicate to racing.

Nothing ground shaking... I get the 100 in the 1/8 in the old car (Nova) - its like riding in a tin box though. I couldn't even hear the vette running with the other cars around - had to go by feel
Joking with a few friends, if we had a stopping contest at the other end - probably would beat everyone hands down
