Hey heetseaker. I have run a 13.7 at GLD. Hey, I'd like to come buy next weekend to RA. Can you give me directions, times, etc? Or can you direct me to a website I can find all that info??? Thanks.

I don't know if I could have my own computer be a server/host for my videos. As soon as I can I will post these vids.

No argument here. When I first got my WS6 for the longest time (learning to drive a stick well) I hovered around 14.0 @ 100. With some practice (and no mods) my best dropped to 13.3 @ 107, so the driver certainly does count for a lot.

That's just a tick off from the average stock LS1 F-Body and just a bit quicker that a stock LT1 F-Body. Here's the main page for the event- http://www.geocities.com/speed_seekers Just about everything you need to know is on there. For directions- I43 north towards Green Bay, west on 23 (Sheyboygan Exit), follow the 2 signs from there.

Yeah man.. the same day I did 9.05(1/8mile) I also saw RX-7 TT run high 9s
I also saw a Trans Am do high 9
After 5-6 passes the LS1 Trans Am did 8.7 or 8.8 or something.(Normal)
(one of my die hard Chevy friend told me that's what Trans Ams are suppose to run, stock)

Also saw a Mustang GT with one passenger run VERY consistent 9.1-9.2
(skilled driver)

Wisconsin S2k, You have to post the VID man!
Show Glen that powerful LS1 aint nothin withought a decent driver

You act as if I'm not aware of that. Jesus Christ you are slow.

Cars don't win races by themselves!!!!

I have seen the video first hand and he speaks the truth. Wisconsin s2k is a good driver (quick shifts, good launches) and cool weather helps.
