Took my C6 Z06 to the track..*Video*

I only ran one time because I was too paranoid about breaking a half-shaft (Which is wha happend last time out when I ran an 11.69. Thank god for warranty)

On my one and only run this day, I got to run a Gen I Viper with simple air mods. Still got a little bit of wheel hop, but not near as much as the first time out when I ran the 11.69.

My car is stock on the stock runflats.

Enjoy!

Thanks guys. The car has another .2 secs in it, stock. I need to quit shifting like a girl into 3rd gear and try to control the throttle on the 1-2 shift a little better to minimize the tire spin.

Good run!!!
You're only .2 off Ranger's best with the street tires, he had a 11.3 bone stock but he usually runs with the DR's now.
1st time down.........you'll be down there in no time!!!

Over a second busting the viper!! Great job!!

Thanks guys. I have only ran this car at the track a total of 5 times. I think that with more runs under my belt, I can come very close to Ranger's time, but probably wont match it.

But, I hate drag racing so I am not sure if I will be going back anytime soon. I just wanted to represent the Z06 community since there was a Blue Z06 there running 13's all day long..

Hehe, me too. But, unfortunately, that costed me time..

With better throttle control on the 1-2 and 2-3 shift, that alone is probably worth another tenth.

Nice run, but one comment...

Does anyone else agree with me that a drag stip is not a TRACK?!?!?!

Anyway, good job. Try a real "track" sometime!

Nice pass!
Did you shift into 4th? I couldn't tell.
Did you break before on street tires, & was it on the launch or the 1-2 shift?
