Let's touch base to figure a time and place where we can meet up.

Pete, Paul Workman and myself went today. Really fun. About 70 Vettes showed up altho only 3 ZR-1s . Surprised more than a few C6s today.
Pete really blew them away running 11.4s with a high trap of 128 WOW!
No question the LT5 is such a top end motor. My last run was up against a late C6 coupe. Had a problem gaining traction on 1-2 shift. Lost several tenths right there but was 6mph faster 114.5 at the top than C6. Just walked away from him last 1/8.
Raised $1100 for charity. Looking forward to doing it again next year.
