OK here is my story.
I didn’t plan on getting to the track but something came up and I needed to head to Princeton. So I hook up with everyone to try to put my 06 Z06 in the tens. The track was pretty busy for this time of the year and I knew that they were going to break my balls if I started posting times under 11.50. We had a gusting head wind of about 25mph and a lot of street tire cars resulting in fair track prep. First pass I launched at around 3,500 and roasted the tires saw a 1.8x on the board so I got out of it and pedaled down the track. Next run I switched lanes and left soft 3,000 rpm and got a little spin but managed a 1.68 60’ so I stayed in it I short shifted the car at 6,600 looking to learn a little and hoping to get a few runs in before I got thrown out. Well that didn’t work out expecting a slip around 11.50 I was handed an 11.01 @ 127.33 and my walking papers. I begged the tech for a warning and allow me one more shot but he wouldn’t give in. I know this car will run at least a 10.80 the way it sits and with gears I expect a 10.60’s.
Here is the break down
60’ 1.688
330 4.698
1/8 7.144
MPH 101.21
1000 9.235
¼ 11.014
MPH 127.33
For everyone that is unfamiliar with my car it has the following mods:
American Racing Headers & high flow cats, Electric Water Pump, foam air filter, drag radials and a Custom LS7 tune by The Vette Doctors. I have not touched the inside of this motor.
