This Kill Story was originally shared to the forum in a thread by “lazerlemonta” from his own YouTube account and it features his Corvette running at a no-prep event at Dominion Raceway. Traction appears to be an issue for many competitors, but this naturally-aspirated, 10-second C6 has no problem beating everyone who lines up with him.10-Second C6The Chevrolet Corvette in the video below has been modified to get down into the mid-10s, but the owner took an unusual route. Many C6 owners will add a supercharger, nitrous or both and run in the 10s, but the OP got there with simple bolt-ons and some engine internals.Upgrades include an electric water pump, a crank scraper, an ATI balancer, 1.85 rockers, new valve springs, a RodMod intake, headers, full exhaust, a ported throttle body and an E85 tune. It also has an aftermarket clutch and a new rear differential with 4.10 gears, with the power being put to the pavement by a set of Hoosier Quick Time Pro drag radials.This mod list has allowed this Corvette to run well into the 10s, but in the video above, there are no times. Some of the videos are from a roll and some are from a dig, but all of them take place on an unprepped surface. That creates traction problems for some drivers, but not for the blue C6.The Racing ActionIn the video above, we get to watch as the C6 Corvette beats literally every car that lines up. The LS3-powered Chevy beats a Mustang GT, a Camaro SS, a heavily-modified Honda Civic hatchback, a new Camaro ZL1, Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat and an older Toyota Supra.In some cases, the competition struggles for traction as the C6 blasts down the track while on other runs, the blue Corvette just plain outruns the car in the other lane. Many of these cars do an admirable job of keeping up, but none of them can pull ahead of the naturally aspirated Chevy sports car.Join the LS1tech forums today!Tags: c6, Corvette, Kill Stories, LS3, Video
