Vette Kill [VIDEO]

Not that its hard to kill a C4 vette (13.7 stock). It was modded maybe for a 13.4, but this vid is also a top speed run to limiter.

I believe its approx. 32-34 second (4100lbs including gas and people) to 157mph (gps)
Its so hard to tell because it shuts down the ignition so gradually you cant feel it. I had to notice the speedo stop moving so i could be wrong.
sorry its a bit dark, but you need some desolate stretches of road to do this stuff
btw the speedo was 1mph off

just curious if anyone has any data for a stock e55. I'd like to track my progress?

ps i've got a lot of cool mb video, but i am running out of bandwidth, anyone know where i can host them for free?

What kind of data?

I ran my E55 all stock at the track and the best I got was 13.29 @ 105, it took about 34-35 sec to 150 mph
Right now I've run 13.12 @ 105 and I haven't measured 0-150 mph.

My car just kills the ignition, I can feel it immediately.

Dude your car sounds awesome, any chance of some video of the speedometer going all the way up to the limiter?

Absolutely amazing sound, if only the new E55 could sound just as loud!
