It's amazing how this Corvette accelerates.

Old video, i still dont belive that it has a 150 shot, it should have been much much faster than that DSM than.

I'm not really impressed, I don't see how he can win races with a holeshot like that. Sure he can accelerate like mad once he gets rolling, but to lose traction when he accelerated from a roll was laughable .... he should spend more money on suspension and soft compound tires than more engine mods to make more power the rest of his car isn't up to handle.

You are the man Dave, you had an 11sec Mustang so you know what you are talking about.....

Still it's impressive for me...civic owner :)

Unfortunately, "HAD" is the operative word, sold a few yrs ago it was a pretty consistent 11.4-11.7 second car with a best E.T. of 11.2 @ 122mph, before that I had a '70 Roadrunner that did a best E.T. of 10.85 @ 131mph without nitrous and 10.22 @ 144mph with nitrous.

I'm now reduced to a Ford Windstar minivan and a Hyundai Accent (auto :o )

After watching the video a few more times I think I might have sold the 'vette a bit short, it might actually be faster than I first gave it credit for ... but still due to amazing acceleration once he got rolling.

He should be quite embarrassed at being taken from a deadstop by that Talon. If it had been me in the 'vette, I would have ducked down the first street on the left and hid until I had done some mods to ensure that didn't happen again.

Then again, some people are happy when their car can do a rolling burnout ... looks impressive, but doesn't win races. ;)

Maybe he was spotting the guy in the Talon a few carlengths. :D
Nah, just bad traction. Shoulda spent money on tires, not nitrous...
