I love my new G8 but this is the car that started my love for the LSX platform. Back in late '98 I ordered a new Z/28 and have since logged over 132k miles. The first 120k was just bolt-ons + N2O.

In '05 my ride was transformed into a real killer for the street. The combo has remained much the same besides replacing broken drivetrain parts/suspension and most recently slapped on 17x11's with MT 295/45's (as pictured).

VIDEO is a cold start, a few revs and a decent pass on motor at full weight

Nice time! But I agree on the tips. Maybe if it said Silverado on the side or something... lol

Thats a hi 10 sec car with some tweaks and cool weather. Maybe 9s with a 175 shot. :)

I'll hit the track in a month and shoot for that elusive time slip. I've since removed ~100lbs,
switched gears from 3.90's to 4.10's and now run a 27" tall tire instead of those giant 28's.
She gets out of the hole much better and should trap ~6400rpm (formerly trapped ~5900rpm).

My car is still wired for N20, just need to add a plate/solenoids but I'm not even legal for 11.49 (no cage)...Doh!

You have a 9" or S60 rear end? Nice NA time. What's your motor's setup?
