of the members, and it was very interesting. Generally, it shook out like this:

Bone stock ZR-1's = 13.30's to the 12.90's at around 105 to 110mph.

Stock Motor, lots of boltons,(headers, Tires, exhaust, etc.)= Down to 11.80's, 118-120mph. depending on M/Y and equipment.

Stock block, but top-end mods, porting, cams.= 12.00's down to 11.00's

Strokers, Big Inch motors N/A= 11.00's- down to low tens.

Power Adders, NOS, Turbos.= Nines, and below.

Within those ranges, a wide diversity depending on Track, conditions, driver ability.

Best Time?

I remember that in the early years with my '93 Quasar and while it was still essentially stock I ran a 13.2 at 107 mph at Beech Bend. In my Polo '95 with his 510 package and 4.10s, Marc ran 12.4 at 116 without power shifting. I ran a little slower in it. By comparison, in about 1970 with my stock '68 Hemi Roadrunner I ran 13.5 at 105 at Lions in Southern California. Ah, the good old days, when you could tune by smelling and seeing the exhaust!--Bob
