I'm not talking about the 1/4. TBH id be terrible at the drag strip. I've only been a couple times and never with the vette. It don't help at the have all season tires on. But for comparison with my same setup Vic went like 10.30 at 132 or something close to that.

Lightweight car like that with that many cubic inches even has to have the cam changed to run numbers like that? Wow, that's sorry.

Downtime said darkpony would be similar to his... which was a kennebell trapping mid 30s... if u do t trap over 140 on the spray Ill be confused since we had nearly identical builds.

If he traps 135 i think I'd still beat him in a roll race. Without the bottle.

Shit. Get a shelby bolt ons, radials, 9's. Fuck. What makes the vette fast isn't the engine. It's the weight and aero. The coyote motor na is way more efficient then the Ls3 motor.

Not quite sure on that. With Bolton's and cam with stock heads I'm putting 500 down. 5.0s with all 4 cams put what down maybe 450? And besides that the ls3 has way more torque. And the ls3 is 7 years old? The 5.0 is 3 I'd hope they would have cought up in 5 years.

I think you probably way oversimplify things, but let's see. So you putting down your 500, without your bottle, can you pull a ZR-1?

You never answered. Can you pull a ZR-1 without your bottle?

He hasn't had the car that long and I doubt he's had the opportunity to race one yet to find out if he can or not.

Tbh I'm not sure. I'd love to race a stock one to see how I compare.

I have no fucking clue what car makes right now...nor do I care. What I can tell you, is my car isn't the usual heavy pig. I'd say the tune is spot on and traction isn't a question. While the power adder is fairly new to me, driving fast cars isn't. I'd oblige a C6 any day.
