Taking down a C5 Z06
Saturday, October 14, 2006 4:32 PM
Lightly modded. Exhaust, intake. Makes good power. Close to 380 at the wheels from what I understand.

I didn't do so well on this pass. 1.744 short time and I bogged.
DA was a little high as well...slowing it down a bit.

Out of the hole at 4100 RPM's apparently isn't quite enough.

DA wasn't quite as good the night I made this pass.

Yup...I know the guy that started that thread. Pretty sure he lives near me.

That was a slow z06. I have run 12.79 in my 98 C5 with nothing but headers and exhaust. I have about 330hp on regular 295 tires. Your car looks nice. I hope to build a 408 or something soon.

Actually it runs right where it should for the mods.

At 5800 feet. That race was at Bandimere in Colorado. Knock off roughly a second for correction.

Wow, major elevation. You need to race your car at sea level and get us some new times.

I know...I know.

I have this thing about driving the car to and from the track though.
I think south is the best bet for me...Texas somewhere.

You should run it in florida here, nothing like a 3 foot altitude.

There are plenty of places I would love to take it. Late next summer I might make it to visit family in the IA/IL area.
Might not be 3 feet above but 630 is MUCH better than 5800.
