Here's a picture...the 01 is a C3; the others are Sierra Denalis:

AFAIK, the EC record is Kelly's 10.93. I would love to see someone run faster than that in an EC...best of luck!!!!

The Sierra's C3 moniker is General Motors shorthand to indicate GMC's century of truck innovation (C) summed up in three qualities: performance, control and capability.
Some GMC folks also refer to the 3 to indicate that this is the third iteration of the Sierra since it was first introduced as a nameplate in 1988.
The C3's 6.0L engine makes 325 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 370 foot-pounds of torque at 4,000 rpm. The same motor in the Yukon Denali was rated at 320 horsepower.
So basically the C3 was originally meant to be a centennial edition truck, and it was the predecessor to the Sierra Denali “even has the same option code”.

Best MPH of the night was 116.78. On the 11.94 pass it was 116.00 flat....
Getting the weight down to 4450-4500 with me in it made all the difference in the world.
Tracks open next saturday so ill get some dyno time in with the 200 and 300 shot pills then go see how it runs....
