***Quickest/Fastest n/a C5***
Although it may be short lived, I believe we may have the quickest(et) and fastest(mph) on the boards for any C5/C6(n/a).
Best ET: 9.931
Best MPH: 138.80mph
Hopefully Danny will get some extra motivation and bump us down.

Excellent run and way to back-up another 9 sec. pass.
Was cool to see you, Tommy and Troy get some validation at the end of the day Friday.
I wish I had gotten that one on tape.

I think your record is safe for the time being.Theres not a lot of NA cars that will challenge that record any time soon.

RobZ whats the RPM's though the traps if you dont mind me asking? I was thinking it has to be like 7500rpm +/- You have rear tires that dont swell like the ET streets but i'm sure they help you MPH more and more stable. I can't understand how the car hooks on a 255width tire but dayum man you make it work. I'm filled with envy and jealousy all in one 
DBN I recall the board name what does he run?

I remember going to Knox Dragway back in the day with my WS6 when he was still shooting for 6's in the 1/8 mile with Heads Cam and a Stall...KP from tech i believe had a procharged 00 SS with a 50 shot running somewhere in the 6s at that time...KP was my tuner and I believe Dannys as well
Crazy the numbers these guys run today...I know Kevin just sold his WS6 but he went 8.92 at 152 stock cubes with a F1 Procharger...who woulda thought that 5 years ago though

Mr wolf the black c5 with a 427 has had some runs in the 9.91 or 9.93 right before the nationals 2 years ago and Paul smith had a couple 9.95 runs also at the nationals but it was cold that weekend

I'm sure they will chime in.
9.91 would be tops.
