Heresan interesting one..
I lost of course...
the corvette ran a 14.5 which is not bad for our elevation at 4000 feet. I ran a 15.5
Camera person decided to stp recording when corvette was about to pass me.. bohoo..

its 1/4miles times?
my mild tuned FC3s runs 14,5 with 0,99sec starting time
and my best time: 13,9
but a low 15 is a good ZE time i think
beat the ITR .. nice

warspider, my k8 got a 15.5 @ 1/4 mile ... so low 15's is not a good ZE time ...

I was thinking of goiing to the track to check out my time but I have an MX-6 clutch and it slips if I shift under load. I have to momentarily back off on the throttle when I shift. Is there any sense going to the track or should I wait till next spring when I put in a new clutch?

reaction times dont matter for ur ending 1/4 mile time man... and a low 15 run wityh a ze ISNT good but hes really high up.... at good elevation a low 14 is decent for a ZE at nearing 100mph thats what a good runnin ze does

"reaction times dont matter for ur ending 1/4 mile time man."
if you fall asleep at starting point ... 2 seconds ... it dont matter for the time on finish 1/4 mile xD

I've been wondering about this... since your speed is in KM, are we sure it is a true 1/4 mile since you don't use miles??? lol I'm just saying...
oh and you have a k8ze not just a regular k8...

k8s here make high 16
kfze make mid 16s
millenia klzes(US SPEC) make loe 15s
curven neck ze makes around a low 15 to flat.
kl31 ze makes 14.7
here in el paso at 4000 flt altitude
temperature usually around the 90s.
all concrete track(like racing in a sidewalk

)
if you guys brink your zes here it will run slower.
My dyno showed 162 whp.
