It will definitely be worth it to make that trip east if you want to experience what we're fortunate to have here.

As for the 6th gen, I will get this car's 60' times down into the 1.6s on the street tires, I did it with the 5th gen. Yes, torque management is a bit$h on this car, but I think I'll be able to do it. Consider that it only took 2 passes to get that 1.74...
Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to discredit etc. Just discussion. And I'm a bit jealous lol

Great job so far you should be able to get some tens. If not stock with a DR for certain.

I know the TM holds these cars back. Even on my lowly SS I picked up around .2-.3 from tuning the trans and removing TM.

Good luck !

As for the other bolt-on 6th gen running that mph, it's definitely legit. A great combo and a great driver. I'm sure he'll be at camarofest to defend his honor .
Good Job Dave!

LOL!! I can go to any of the three tracks in MD and run pretty much around the same MPH and ET. All legit. We get GREAT air in MD. That is a fact. I have over 600+ passes on my 5th Gen from all three local tracks and the ET and MPH are all in the same area code (10.7x/10.8x/10.9x depending on the DA).

Another crowded night. Only able to get one run in; but it's my best so far (just slightly better). As I've stated before, I've practiced 0-60 times a lot and I've always done better using launch control. Using launch control for better times is contradictory to everything I've read, but it seems my car is quicker when I use it. When I saw a lot of people spinning at the line, I thought it would be the perfect night to try it.

Nice run, 11.57 is not bad for your mods and I'm sure the heat doesn't help any. It didn't for me either

Thankyou, but I really want some lower 11s one day. I'm taking a break until the fall with the racing, but ill be saving for a converter and maybe a 15 inch conversion.
