Regarding your Vette, most modified cars I've read about that are going mid 8's in the 1/4 are running in the 190's or higher in the half mile. Is there a reason the mph is where it's at on the Vette?

Thanks for the compliment. I'm going the supercharged route.
As for the 1/2 mile speed, traction was NON-existent. 1st and 2nd were useless. I'd start hooking in 3rd. I do think the vette can go 200 mph in the 1/2. Point in fact, on the 181 mph run, I had a 56.36 mph increase between 1/4 and 1/2 mile speeds. Here are the stats from that run:
60 ft - 2.538
1/4 ET - 12.797
1/4 MPH - 124.79
1/2 ET - 18.595
1/2 MPH - 181.15
There are few events coming up, so we shall see.
