Default New best et 10.72, mph 131, & ran a C6 Z06

Great day at Fayetteville Motorsports Park with Josh today since he was in town from MD. The air was not bad but not great either with a DA of +500. My first pass on a 150 shot resulted in a new best and the car felt awesome:

6.88.....1/8 mile
101.35...1/8 mph
10.72...1/4 mile
128.90..1/4mph
Here's a video of that pass:

Second pass was a so so et, but a new best mph by a lot. I changed nothing from the first pass and the air temp was warming up quite a bit (67 degrees), so I have no idea why it picked up 2.5 mph.

6.96.....1/8 mile
101.67...1/8 mph
10.82...1/4 mile
131.43..1/4mph

Finally...LT4 vs. LS7. I've wanted to run a C6 Z06 for a long time and got the chance today. There was a really nice looking Z running today and we decided to pit old school Vette against new school .
Here's the result:

Was this a stock C6 Z06? If it was, it really wasnt a fair race was it?

I would like to see a hopped up 396 LT4 vs a LS7.


131.43 is moving! Did the little guy race his car?

Check back tomorrow for the result and video footage of C4 vs. C6 Z06 and video of the other two passes.

The Z06 was tuned, but I think that's it. I probably could have run him on motor and made it a good race, but it was too good of a chance to outrun a C6 Z06 on video and I didn't want to lose

No, Josh didn't run his car this round.

That was pretty sorry of me not to let you know we were headed down. Won't let it happen again, sir!

Air warming up, did the bottle get hotter? More pressure = more nitrous flow. What do you run for air fuel on the bottle?
