New Record for show room stock c6z06
Sunday at the last test and tune of the year Ranger broke his record on stock tires. With a 11.13@127mph. That is even faster than he thought it would go. Who would have thought that a show room stock car could go this fast.

BS! BS! BS! No way, not possible!!!!!!!(sarcasm for those slow people)
OK, since that is out of the way, the only thing I have to say is WOW. Excellent conditions + one hell of a driver = one very impressive time.

That's a crazy 60' for street rubber too. Was that with the t/c on or off? Is the t/c in the new Vettes actually useful, or are you just better off without it like on most other cars?

That time doesnt count! Its Ranger! (He makes Evan Smith look like an also ran).
A stock GT would be cutting 1.80 60's and 12.9 1/4 with that man at the wheel.
Not to mention how light he is!

That's in competitive driving mode, which tc off but will apply the brakes if the car starts to get sideways.
NoI just read his post it was with tc off. I didn't read it before since I was there when he did it.
