A friend called me this morning and wanted to meet at the local 1/8th mile strip. I took Jay's C5 and since safety was definitely my priority I made several passes with the traction control on, and running Michelin runflat street tires. I did take it very easy and still got some decent ets.

8.40,8.43, and 8.49. MPH was very consistent at 91.64 to 91.74. My 60 ft times were all 2.08 or slightly higher as I wanted to launch it carefully and not spin at all.

I think Jay will be pleased. It has a whole lot more in it, but I was being very carefull instead of being aggressive with it.


The MPH is real good and indicates easy 11 second et's at 115-118 mph dependent on a few variables. Of course you need to reel that 60 ft in as you know.

Good running car !
