Here's a video from this past Saturday, taken by my friend Mike (06 Saleen) from his beautiful 2003 Z06 with a small cam and headers, street tires. His best pass was a 12.3x at 115, my best of the day was an 11.48 at 119 IIRC.

It's only because you were the only one not on drag radials...

You just need more practice and seat time dude. I had an '02 Z06 with a small Futral F11 cam, Vararam intake and Hurst shifter and ran 11.80's on BFG street tires. My car ran 12.40's bone stock...both times the DA was around 800-1000 if I recall. The LS6 likes rpm at launch...and you gotta do a bigger burnout.

Yeah I was on street nt05s and being my first time out it was just learning the car. I'll try more next time out.

New bests from Saturday 5/17/2014. Only change is a 3.31 gear swap, and I was running with a few extra gallons of fuel (about 1/2 tank vs the 1/4 tank I had in the car for my previous best.

The DA on my previous best from last month calculated out to be about +160. The DA on my best ET pass this past Saturday was around +970. Not a big change but it makes a difference. Using generic DA correction factor charts it appears the car picked up around 0.15 in the ET (corrected) with the gear swap. With my 27.2" tires (255/60-15) the car shifts into 4th at 7600rpm just after the stripe. Perfect!

Thanks again to Mike Rousch for getting the tune setup!

Side note: my 1/8th mile speed seems to be up 2-3mph over last season (and over similar setups/times with other cars) but my 1/4 mph hasn't gone up. I'm starting to wonder if it's an anomoly with the track timers at Rock Falls.

Anything else it could be? Consistent 96mph in the 1/8th is pretty strong for the rest of my timeslip I think...

Any updates Kris on how the new owner likes his badass ride? Lol
