This infamous Z06 was/is owned by a guy named Ranger. He's on LS1tech. It went 10.85 but it did have DR's. Still an amazing feat... HOWEVER... when Ranger made that pass he stated that the DA was -850. You can get a stock Yugo to run 12's in those weather conditions. I really don't think mineshaft air should be considered when judging the ET of a car. My $.02 -Mark

I know about ranger, but this is another one that did it on stock tires.
Here is the link:Z06Vette.com - Corvette Z06 Forum - 10-second stock C6 Corvette Z06 on run flats

Here is the quote from the thread:
Originally Posted by dascrow
A ten-second quarter mile time in stock trim has been reserved for limited production supercars only. However, a man proved that with the right combination of weather and skill a completely stock C6 Corvette Z06 can break 11.0. During a private test and tune event at Maryland International Raceway (MIR) Jamie Furman and his C6 Z06 running on the stock Goodyear F1 EMT run flat tires hit 10.98 at 129 mph in the 1320. The run was validated by a track official to achieve the record for quickest mass production vehicle. While the run was aided by near sea level track elevation and 40-degree air temperature, it still took refined gear banging skills to secure the record. Mr. Furman did not leave well enough alone with one record though. After hitting the 10s on the stock tires he threw on a set of drag radials to see what would happen. He hit 10.83 at 130 mph, breaking the previous drag radial standard of 10.85.

1.77 on what 18 or 19" run flats? Thats hard to swallow. I can't remember but either MIR or NED is ranked as one of the fastest tracks in the states. I remember seeing vids from friends who race there. It almost looks like the damn track goes down hill 2-3 degrees. But I guess a record is a record. -Mark
