    That's a good time. The car rags were getting mid 14s?

      Yeah, it has been said they the people testing for the mags could not launch properly. Several others on C5 are low 14's.

          They usually get the best times; they have all day long, with as many back to back runs as they need to get it right. At test and tune, by the time I make a run, get back around to staging, and wait in line, I forget what the hell I did on the last run

            PS: That was not my run! hehe

            14.5 is the lowest that I have been able to do. Sadly, as jimmyh stated, I have no clue how I did that. I also did not pull out my sub, amp, and other non-essential crap from the trunk.

              I really want to get the SS to the strip to see what I can do. I am anxious to try out the launch control. They say it doesn't work very well, but I never had one before. And compared to the V I use to have, I would love to see how this car launches on a prepped track. I wish I could have had the chance to get my LT to a track when I had it.

                Head to GLD in late october or early november and you'll be able to run your car all day without waiting. I did 30 runs in 3 hours last year.

                That run is pretty impressive with nothing modded.

                  I went there as a kid with my dad. It's where I saw an 80's (maybe 70's?) suburban run a 13. Which was damn fast back then. But haven't been there since long before I started driving. I would like to go sometime.

                  Group trip maybe?

                    14.3's uncorrected are very good. I don't like to correct times for DA because it basically didn't happen.

                    My 2006 TBSS went 13.84@99 stock.
                    2010 Camaro SS/RS L99
                    13.15@106 1.95 stock
                    11.84@113 1.59 bolt-ons stock internal
                    10.90@125 1.47 GPI VVT Cam + Bo White Ported Heads

                        I just don't get the debate about correcting. It's the only way to compare runs from different times and locations since the air can be different.

                        what would be considered avg/normal for a stock V6?
                        Mid 14's.

                          Don't worry, we'll surely have a few trips up there this year. Blame Dan for getting a few of us into softball league on the street tire night, otherwise it would be every Tuesday.
