Default Race Proven Motorsports C7 Results!!

Picked up my C7 Last Saturday from Mike Furman at Criswell Chevrolet.




Baselined the car monday morning with around 140 miles on it



Took it to the track last night bone stock to get some baselines



Im pretty happy with how it ran for being stock. Now time for mods

Would you mind posting the run details (ET, mph, 60') in the OP since many of us have youtube blocked at work. Thanks

So it seems from the 1/4's posted so far the A6 is about 3/10's quicker than the M7. Interesting. I wonder if the A6 advantage would also manifest on a road circuit.

I recall a few years ago when Heinricy ran the Caddie CTS-V at Nurbugring to set the sedan record he chose the A6 car over the M6, stating it was faster.

a manual will take more seat time to reach max potential.

also I have better results with a cold day with strong sun. cold air, warm pavement. friday night drags won't do it.

I am going to guess a mid/high 1.8X.

Not sure of the exact 60', but based on ET/MPH...I'd guess a low 1.9x, which the A6 then has a .2 advantage out of the hole and one less shift as gearing is pretty much optimized for the 1/4 in stock trim. Unless the road course favored the gearing of the A6, I would imagine it wouldn't be faster if the manual was in the hands of a capable driver.

Congrats on the run OP!

Did you use No Lift Shift? Can this be used without Launch Control? Sounds like you have a strong c7, congrats!

Nice run! That's two C7's in the 11's bone stock trim. Can't wait to see what they will do with some minor mods.

I'm local so I gotta come check this car out

Not lean, but leaner than most of GMs stock WOT tunes.

I believe that is a result of being DI, the combustion is more efficient and allows you to run leaner. Knowing how GM tunes their cars from the factory, I would bet 12.0:1 is very safe for DI.
