If you have any c6 1/4 mile stick shift questions, feel free to hit me up. New subscriber. 👍🏼
Radials and more practice with your shifting and you’ll easily run faster times
Please have a good tuner…. I recommend chuck from Houston House of Power
Dude, how many times you gonna tell us its bone stock? LOL
I wanna see more 1LE track days😛😛
Ahhhh, mustangs pulling on Corvettes, a typical occurrence.
Yep, more power needed…..it called a ZR1
You need to pro charge and cam it and u will be 😊
Bring back the MOPAR!! Just playing man! Keep up the good work! congrats on adding another 5k to the 100k!!
Boy if ur happy with a 12.9 shoulda gotten a new edge mustang like turdzillas from mustang lifestyle 🐋
For one u don't do burnouts or street tires it makes a film on the tires.
Did anyone else count how many mustangs gapped him? 707hp with warranty vs 400hp no warranty? Why?
Stock hellcat running 10s to a slow corvette basically running 13.0 💀💀
Watch Ranger. He knows how to launch a Corvette. Type in "Ranger Corvette" and you will find him here on YouTube. He's run those times in a stock C5.
You need drag radials dude Hoosiers. Should put the car right at 12.3 – 12.4 street tires are dangerous because of the wheel hop.

My bone stock 2018 Grand Sport on Hoosiers ran a 1.8 60ft 12.12 at 114. Ran a 1.74 60ft 12.09 at 115 later but the camera had died. The da that night was about 1800 foot
Can’t drive stick 🤷🏻♂️
That orange fury 18 would have given you that sauce sir!!!! Haha if only you got to run that 18 gt with your 1le you had been nice………to still lose haha good runs
New motor.
I feel your launch pain… My daily is a '99 Vette with a heads/cam/blower LS3 in it. Last week (my second trip to the track) at a DA of 7500, I ran a consistent 12.6 ET, but with a trap speed of 122-123. Obviously, traction is a problem. Equally obviously, if I went down hill to someplace with a reasonable DA, it would be even worse. I'm running the car in exactly the same configuration I use for road trips. Nitto 555s, and no, they're not the R. If you've got any suggestions for launching, I'd love to hear them. One friend suggested sand bags in the rear.
Any dyno's planned? one now and then after mods……
No hate but mustang with the victory I mean the new 18s run 11s stock whoever says I’m lying go look
Turd….
10.7s was too fast, gets a corvette that runs 12.9, Perfect! 👌
Pretty cool you’re located in Houston/San Antonio I too am in Houston and I just find it cool when I see people on YouTube that are close to me
Love the black rims on it
Were you in Crosby this afternoon? Hwy 90?
Time to trade the vette for a mustang 🙊
Good job I was able to do 12.1 at 116mph in my stock grandsport.
The Grand Sport with the manual transmission has launch control, which allows you to have a more controlled optimal launch. Look in your owners manual for specifics on its operation.
All in the 60’, bad launches
Torque management blows…
Just now watching this video but i saw this race:)
I'm a mustang guy Ford guy in general but I'm an Enthusiast as well and I have to say your Grand Sport is gorgeous and that's one of the most beautiful colors ever. I live here in Houston technically right behind the fountains off 59 South it'd be awesome to see you over at the local car show at Otto's BBQ in the fountains
And according to the video looks like you need an alignment
What drag strip ? I am in Houston.
Thanks.
good runs man that's a beautiful vette
you need an automatic
You need to get rid of your piece of shit tires put the right tires back on good year f1 high speed tire have them on my s ls3 corvette ran a 11.96
At 120 MPH
Has launch control.. doesn't use it.
How much hp does the vette have?
Wow, would have expected more. My bone stock 12 Charger SRT8 I was running 12.8 @108. Tires were also its achilles heal, with a 2.0 60' it was either bog or spin off the line nothing in between
Make sure traction control is off. Tune. exhaust. Cold air.sticky tires. Practice
Need the driver mod. Launch is bad. The automatics are smoking you.
An auto would be better
Launch control?
wow you suck. let someone who can drive run it.
