It is the end of the year for most and I figure all the time slips are in. I'm curious what are the best ET's for stock (including tires) vs. modded ET's that we all got this year. I know geography, DA, etc. affect the numbers a bit but I'm looking for a collection of times so we could maybe have some data that can be compared to. Maybe give some people ideas of where they would want to go with modding and what not, other than those that just buy everything :thumbsup:

Or, we could just post up the numbers and brag...

I'll start with mine of course :p:

Then we can get Gary W. to put it all in excel for us :rofl:

If Gary W. is implying Gary Wells and you guys haven't figured out that I am not only the village sot but also the town idiot the we're all in trouble. And if that is not bad enough, I have a Imac 20" which I have not figured out how to import music yet, have MS written Excel and haven't figured out that yet either, so now you know why I post queries such as, well, you guys know what I post.
However, I would do whatever I could to help because I do believe that a lot of knowledge is obtainable from data.
On a side note, is your V bone stock? No mods, not ever a K & N? Because that is darn good time for a stock V. Somebody a while back posted that they were running a bone stock '09 V I believe with an *auto*, and ran at 12.01, or 12.1, don't remember.
I am doing the post on '09/03 Build date just for giggles but I know down the road some good will come of it.
I am very interested in seeing how this thread develops, and sorry to take it off track for my whining.

I called you out specifically because I knew you were responsible for the build date thread. I enjoy what insight you have to offer this forum.

And yes, everything was BONE stock. Like right off the lot. I've only seen one other 11 sec. from a bone stock V so I'm tickled pink.

I would really like some input because I think it would be great to see some numbers to analyze and see if any patterns emerge. Such as W4M tune will get you around a 0.2 off at the track...not just dyno numbers. And I agree, I hope some good comes from this.

I'm honored, to say the least. For right now, I will track the data as best that I can on a Word document, which is where I am tracking the '09/03 build data.

Actually, not a lot of people entered data on that, but of the ones that did, some are'09/02, some are '09/03, and some are '09/04 with a scattering of other build dates so I am keeping them all for future reference.

As being of not a normal frame of mind, I believe that the front wheel clicking will eventually be solved by a '09 CTS-V owner and member of Cadillac Owners, but not necessarily a GM employee. As much as I hate to put it to print, I believe that GM at least suspects the origin of the problem, but is not about to step up to the plate due to financial reasons.

OK, where's our '09 CTS-V drag racers, especially the '09 CTS-V bone stock dragsters at?
