Looks like fun! I'm pretty sure a stock c6 should run faster than a 14.0 though..

4300 altitude and 105 degree weather did not help. There was another C6 with full exhaust and intake running 13.5s. Every one was running shi$$y times that day. No less, he started to mod his Vette next day.

Damn, I didn't know the track down there was at 4300 elevation, and the az heat really doesn't help at all. Pretty significant difference just with the butt dyno here in the summer.

Yeap, N/A cars are close to a full second slower (compared to sea level). Our cars and turbo cars maybe half. Denroll logged a lost of 3 psi of boost do the different atmosphere pressure.
