Default So who has the fastest C4 in the barn?

I cant claim mine is because I have yet to run it but I would like to see what everyone else runs :auto:

Default Fastest or quickest

Quickest as in 1/4 mile times is not me, But fastest as in top speed I may have at 207mph in the blue open road race car (see sig). It is the ride that got me in the 200mph club.

So if I get in with my 13.09@109mph that would make me quickest until someone else posts?

Good point.

Fastest = Highest top speed
Quickest = Quickest ET over the quarter.

I have had mine up to 70 mph.

Is there a "Who's driven the slowest" section?

Aren't you the guy that blew a tire at 175 MPH or so? I remember seeing some pics at the other place before they found it fit to ban me.

All the damage is from the tire. We hit nothing and walked away without a scratch or bruise. Now my wallet took a big hit.

My stock 94 LT1 auto ran 13.8 at 104 at Texas Motorplex in Ennis back in the fall of 09. In the spring of '10 the heads were ported (Lloyd Elliot LT1 LE2), 218-224 cam, Crane 1.6 RR's, JBA headers, LT4 intake, a 2800 stall converter, and a conservative tune.

I haven't been able to get back to Ennis to run it again, but it sure feels a lot quicker. Plans are to install/rebuild the rear with 3.73's.

Mine's not the fastest... but it isn't slow! All of you CFers have seen it before... and all of you VA guys saw it way before I owned it.
