Did some drag racing at Union Grove last night with a couple vettes and others.

First one was a '04' modified supposedly with tuning program, throttle body, injectors and breather intake. I took it at 12.7 to 13.2 in the first race and 12.8 to 13.1 on the second.

Third race was Kelly with a 12.8 to 13.5

Fourth was a GSX that sounded and burned out mean so I spun worse yet off the line but his bark was bigger than the bite with it ending up at 13.2 to 14.3

Last race was with none other than a Z06. I spun out pretty badly again but took it with a 13.3 to 13.9 There is first hand info on a probably bone stock Z06.

Running mostly at night and a lot off cars there which mean cold tires that I could not control. I'm beginning to think 12.1 was pretty lucky and the only way into 11s is with drag radials. Best 60' time was 1.983

Had a lot of fun, saw some sub 10 second runs, a few dragsters and a jet dragster call the Chicago Rush. Get this 5.5 @ 287. You could tell the track was old and worn. Byron is a better track, but the Grove is less than 30 minutes away.
