C6 Track Video!!!

I was wondering what the new C6's are trapping. What kind of mods do you think this guy has or do you think it is stock with an amazing driver and great tires. Without a doubt the guy can grab some gears, and the trap speed isn't very high so I figured that it might be a stock car or very lightly modded. What do you guys think?

I was thinking the same thing. It sounds stock and the trap speed is close to stock numbers but that time is very quick. His shifting was very good. It sounded like he power shifted every gear, I know he hit the rev limiter in between the 3-4 shift. I am still wondering how in the world that car hooked up launching at the rpm he did. Maybe that is the secret to driving in competitive mode? I know my car seems to bog in competitive mode when launched below 2500 rpm and will smoke the tires when launched without traction control at the same rpm. Maybe I need to try a +5000 rpm launch in competition mode. The only problem is I am not sure the TM will keep things from breaking, launching at that rpm.

Very good time. But, I bet there was a bolt-on product som,ewhere in there. :-)

I sure don't like seeing the mufflers hanging under the car like that.

That is the cartech car with a 3.90 rear end and kooks headers. You can tell he's going through the gears much quicker than a stock car.
