Big time props to my tuner !
I just got the new issue of VETTE Magazine. On the cover is the C7 Stingray Z06 he got to run 9.8s with bolt ons and stock internals. Jeremy Formato at Fasterproms has been my guy for 11 years, he's always done magic. This one just went a lot more noticed because he was the first to break the barrier.
I heard about the car, then saw the videos, but when it shows up on a magazine in your mail box, it just gets kinda real ! Most people are happy to have a good tune, I've got 2 different performance parameter tunes in this A6 and it makes the car SO much cooler to deal with between "normal" driving and getting down to business.

That is awesome to hear that! Not many tuners can properly tune a 6L90. Can you explain more about your two A6 tunes?

where abouts in St Pete are you Muder1? Who does Jeremy Formato work for? I might like to use him for a job. Do you ever go over to the West Courtney Campbell causeway brigde on Saturday nights? there are a lot of people that get together in the parking lot on the left of the bridge and talk around 10 pm. Maybe see you around?.

Carl !! What's up ? Did you jump into a ZL1 also ? I think that's 4 of the old school here.
I wasn't at the Dupont show. Jeremy calls it Jeckyll and Hyde. In "D" the performance parameters are upped from stock, but you can deal with it. In "M", timing, fuel shift points, shift speed, are all different and REALLY aggressive. Not what you would really want to drive around in traffic in. Track or street time. I think 2011 was the first time I knew of him doing that. From what I've seen most LSAs make more hp than torque but mine makes more torque than hp like older gen engines. Different mod combinations do different things. I've got two more things to do... One more dyno trip and drag radials, then it'll be at the end of phase 1. Phase 2 is pricey. But I enjoy the car so much it's not a priority to mod it. C.C.C. gets too much attention. With my schedule now I'll probably visit the Tampa Bay Camaro Club guys Wednesday on Ulmerton if it's not raining. They had 6 ZL1s total when I first met them, they may have more now. BTW - - Country Boy was one of my motivators to go to n20 in Ghost1 as he was my first loss in my old club That was 14 yeas ago. Seems like last Saturday.

Hows it been Bryan?! Sick ride for sure bud. I've been a lurker here for a long time. I am getting back into the game, just unsure which route I want to take at the moment, but it will be this year. Those 6s sure do look awesome though!
Sure do miss those old times! |
