I'm not worried about him either. I worried for your investment...

Well if the engine blows or something else , I have my warranty.

 

[Jack Raccoon!]

11.6

I say 11.7 or slower on factory tires

I would be surprised , if he did not say , let me try it. He has more trophies than I have years.

Who are we talking about??

A guy I know, in Napierville. His name is Guy Tremblay. He does car/computer tuning and more.

With all the videos I have seen and at the track , that would be a suck time.

What's the altitude of Napierville? I've raced there and it's not a bad track.

I do not know that. By the way I do have an almost full tank of gas , so that will not help my times at first.

It won't hurt your traction though.

No that's for sure

drag racers always have excuses ready.... 11.8 or worse

I hope not that high but the gas tank , the wind , barometric pressure , compound glue , burn outs, etc. determine a drag race. Will see tomorrow. Finally got my launch control going. Did not try it though , I was on a neighborhood street.

174 feet so shouldn't see any HP loss

Ok , bad day at the track. 11.57 was my best time. Either the track sucks or this car does. Wheel hop every time. Right lane would not stick at all. Left lane, wheel hop twice, right lane 4 times! My pro told me, all Z51s wheel hop, what he's seen at least. He says for drag racing Z51 option is useless. Some have broken down and left by towing. He showed me his run, with a bare no option C8 coupe and he did a 10.96 quarter mile. Wow! It's on the internet. Eliminate the wheel hop and with a 3/4 tank full of gas and I would of done 11.30. I have to admit the track was bad, lots of complaints about the right lane. Next time I will have my drag radials on. Very worried about the wheel hop though. I hope I don't break anything. Will post my time , soon.

11.57 is a good number all factors considered.

They won't help! Do you have mag ride?

Maybe it's time to give it up and build a dedicated track car...
