If you really think I'm bs, go ahead and argue over on ls1.com and tell them a C5 can't do better than 13's stock. You'll get laughed off the forum.
guess all of us drivers in Louisiana suck? look at my sig...sucks....everyone here with a car sucks except redline....damn, we need bicycles...maybe we can cut better 60's with those b/c we dont have to worry about spinning off the line and/or missing a gear....but yes man...down here, the drivers down here in shreveport/bossier run like mid 13's in their C5's so big ups to the ones who run 12's and shitt in their STOCK C5's b/c they sure dont do it here

just curious, what does a Z06 run stock? from MY understanding, they run 12.3-12.4 stock and everybody around here where I live at believes that also b/c we have a couple Z06's here thats done so

also we're taking STOCK...STOCK WHEELS...STOCK TIRES...NO FREEBIE MODS

yup im talking stock off the show room floor my friend. oh, and after looking again, the stock time of a C5 is closer to 12.6 with the best drivers. the Z06 gets 12.2.

even so, 12.6 is a FAR CRY from the raggedy 13.4 you are claiming. so yes i guess the drivers that you have seen suck. in fact even on ls1 forums they said someone hitting a 13.4 in a stock C5 can't drive for sh*t

12.8 stock C5 though the guy admits he should be able to get 1.9 60' times. this was the only time slip i could find, but several others stated times in the 12.6-13.0 range.

so yes... the people you see suck at driving.

JetBlu, regardless of the times, you still haven't told us how you overcame 100+ hp. Let's say the car runs a high 12 1/4, you telling me you can come even close to that. And before you say it's your 60 foot time, even based on your mph, that vette is goin to be owning you.

oh okay guys my bad....this dude here in shreveport just told me he ran 13.2@111mph with 2.0 60' in his '97 vette. Sorry I was going off the guys that told me they ran 13.4 and a 13.7...oh well, I still had fun with that vette and I knew the entire time I was gonna lose but hey never know when u get that chance again. Sorry I'm stupid and let this thing die...I wanna race some LOW 14 sec cars...i think i can get 'em

like stock 350Z's and stuff like that

like I said, my friend ran 13.9@98mph with 2.0 60' in his S2000 so shitt I'm close just gotta get my launch down but I'll be doing races from a roll till I get my launch right
