Just curious :) I'd like to know who it is so far. I don't think I'm gonna ever make mine 'track' legal, but I would like to see how I would stack up!

Probably not a good match to "Advanced Tech".... maybe "Drag Racing...." or "LT1 Tech". Moving to "Drag Racing....."

that is the reason I don't see myself being a threat at the track ... I don't want the halo part of the roll cage on my vert, and I don't want to put a 9" in :)

check out the latest GM hightech mag. OOOPs!. Just realized you wanted 6 speed only. But....this guy Duke has an LS1 Trans AM vert running 8.52 at 163 :) . Its an auto with more than 1000HP.

boosted - yea i was just about to mention that one too, forgot that it was an auto though. I give huge props though auto or not gives us all something to shot for

I went mid-10's in my street/strip 'vert with the 6-speed. Full weight car.

none of us really care for roll bars (hey, if we wanted a 2 seater, we would have bought one) so none of us are 1/4mile legal.


i can get away with it at the local 8thmile though... i'll have times posted when shes together. :)

George Baxter used to roll a 6-speed... but it's been swapped out for some time. I don't recall where he was at the time of the swap, but low-11's sounds about right. He's running single-digits now from what I've read. :)

baxter was the fastest for years, since he ditched the LT1 im sure a LS1 guy has it
