15.21@87.4 in a 2000 Z71 SBSC 4x4 o.k.?
I just purchased a 2000 Z71 SBSC 5.3L Stepside pick with 30k miles on it and ran at the track today just for fun. The truck is of course a 4x4 and has the 3.73 locking differential. My best time was a 15.21@87.4 with a 2.21 60'. Is this a reasonable time for a totally bone stock truck such as this? Thanks. BTW, the scales were closed and I would like to know an approximate weight. Approx 4200lbs??

It's an excellent time!
Could you please get me the elevation or name of the track you raced at and the time on your timeslip for that run? I want to do a DA calculation to get and idea of how much of a freak your truck is or if it had something to do with weather.
All I really need is:
Time of the run
Elevation and name of the track
The nearest town
I can figure out the rest from there as long as I have a correct time for that exact run.

The air was near perfect as a few guys with weather stations reported to me. I ran at 11:00am, it was 47 degrees, Baro 30.25, humidity was 30%. One guy calculated the DA to be -1300. So, this run was definitely in perfect air. The track was Maryland International Raceway(MIR) and the nearest town is Mechanicsville, MD or Budds Creek, MD. Kinda weird that I live in Mechanicsville, VA which is about 80 miles away. I don't think I have a factory freak...just good air from what you guys are posting. Thanks.
