Race Proven Motorsports 8.81@154 C6Z06

Worlds first 8 second z06. We made our first pass off the trailer today and went 8.891@ 154.47 after the 30 mile street cruise. This was all done on pump gas and the car weighed in at 3350 with driver.

About 2 hours later. we went on a different tune we went 8.81 @ 154.90 on a 1.323 60'

This is a 07 c6z06 with ls7 block with our custom cam ysi blower, stock intake manifold, and RPM 4l80e auto conversion on IRS on pump gas(93) with methanol injection.

This is likely the first 8 second C6 Z06 of course.

That was great run. Thought about putting a trans brake in the car so that it can lauched at a higher rpm? Thanks for sharing.

Does not appear to be a roll cage in that car. Per NHRA rules a car that can run 8.80's at 154mph must have a full roll cage plus other safety items. I know that no NHRA track would allow a car that quick and fast on the track without the proper safety items.
