Default Last year cars like the Z28 ...


...above were kicking my butt regularly. I set a personal goal for this year to run 13.40 seconds.




Today I achieved my goal.

NICE man, those are some of the best street tire times i have seen NA. i just cant get traction at all in my car on street tires. i cant floor my car in first or second on the street. it just breaks loose. right after i get back from Z dayz i am going to put some nice tires on the back and head to the track for some street tire times. i hope i can do pretty well

keep up the good work man!!!

Very nice times, bro - congrats on achieving your goal... but I gotta ask you what you were running against with those times? 1.6 60ft and 10 something @128mph? A new Z06 on slicks? 600awhp evo?

LOL. I race in Trophy Class which is open to just about any car. The majority of the cars are not street legal, and run 10.5 inch slicks. So when I stage, I might be running against a 10 or 17 second car.
