10’s is great for stock car, especially a 5 seater with a great trunk. For most people, a Corvette is purely a pleasure car and not something you would take on a vacation, and useless if you want to take your wife and kid/dog with you anywhere. If I had a both a Z06 and a HC in the garage, the Z06 wouldn’t get 1/3rd the use of the HC.

For car that actually has utility, the Charger/Challenger is great. In a regular NB Charger HC with minor mods Adrenaline Rush has almost the same numbers as the Z06 with one very important exception; AR’s Charger came through 5 MPH faster! Once these cars hook up at what, around 80, the pull is amazing!


Yes, poor traction is the sacrifice we make when we choose these cars, but they are much more than ¼ milers, the same Charger owned by AR (with different rear tires) hit 203.782 in the 1.5mi!!!


Ya, a quick 0-60 is cool, but that is not what these cars are about, we know and accept that. When I did the land speed trials, the pull right to redline in 5th was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend you guys try doing a 1 or 1.5mi. at least once!

Unless you can get your cars rollout down to .500 seconds and leave on the last amber your RT is gonna be all over the place without a brake and a box

I’m good but it’s impossible to leave in between bulbs consistently

Rather be red than late : )

Well, here's my $0.02. You need to pick what you want to work on when you go to the track (or on each individual pass). If you are going for ET/60', you want to stage as shallow as possible to get that rolling start. However, this will increase your RT some. To cut down your RT, you'll need to find where staging gives you the best light. In my experience, I need to go a bit deeper (not completely deep) to cut down the light. This, however, will increase your ET and 60'.

I ALWAYS stage as shallow as possible. Consistency is key so everything I do needs to be something I can ALWAYS do. Trying to guess how far I’m into the stage beam is harder than trying to leave between bulbs

I’ll Deff give that a try when I race in a few weeks, appreciate the tip. I’m a newbie, so Deff gotta practice more.
