What 1/4 Mike time did you run when stock or close to?

I am going to take my vert to the track soon , and was just wondering. I know about what they should run compared to what stock coupes run, but wanted to get some real people numbers. I only have a cold air intake and a LS3 catback with a GMPP axle-back so far on it. So I am basically stock.

It's a little different with verts as most of those times are coupes. How many vert camaros you see at the strip? OP, the few times I've been at the track the best I've done with bolt ons and a tune is a 13.2 with stock tires. You be looking at low 14s is my guess.

Thanks. That is why I put it here. It doesn't specify between coupes and verts if I recall correctly. And with the vert a little heavier, I knew times would be different. Plus aren't those the fastest people, not average?I did think they would be a little closer though. Well if the weather is good next Wednesday, I most likely will find out. My old 3rd gen ran a 13.2 and my 5th gen feels just as fast. But the butt dyno has been known to be off calibration. And , what Bolton's were you running at the time?

Cool. But wow it looks like I will be slower than I was thinking. I was thinking I would run a mid 13. I hope next Wednesday is clear, and if I can get off work early enough I will find out.

Now that is closer along the lines to the times I would expect. I will be happy to run that!

I just ran 13.9 at 101 mph 3 straight times in a row. 2 times with the traction control on and 1 time with it off. I have a Solo performance cat back exhaust, a street tune and a Halltech CAI. My car is also an automatic. According to numbers I've seen that's almost right in line with the manual version which has 426hp stock. What can I do to improve this time without breaking my budget?

Mine is a 2010 L99 and the only mods are a CAI and cat back exhaust with automatic trans, Ran 13.8XX all day, no matter launch style, fun but not very fast super consistant with auto so in bracket racing you can run a repeatable number all day long

Have fun!

I ran it tonite. Best of13.6. I'm neither happy or sad. Feel like it was just an ok time. Makes me want to put long tubes and a tune on it though, I gotta admit. LOL
