JUPITER, Fla. (February 13, 2015)
\nPalm Beach International Raceway (PBIR) fans witnessed a record ET for a street legal be shattered on the drag strip during Test and Tune Wednesday night. Hometown racer, Stephen Vigoa beat the prior quarter-mile record with a pass of 9.356-seconds at 146.78 miles per hour in his red 2013 ZL1. He did so with a stock bottom end, an aftermarket camshaft, ported stock heads, a ported supercharger, a little nitrous, the usual list of bolt-on’s, and was it mentioned – it is street legal.<\/p>\n

According to Vigoa, it felt very different for him using the nitrous spray, stating “it was a different kind of boost, really putting you in the seat.”<\/p>\n

Now that the record has been broken, PBIR wanted to know what direction the Florida native was going to go with the build of car. “Faster, we plan to put a 15-inch wheel conversion, do a transmission overhaul, and begin to really build out the engine,” said Vigoa.<\/p>\n

Jay Healy of KraftWorks is the builder and tuner of the 2013 ZL1, which features a KraftWorks spec’d custom camshaft from COMP Cams. The supercharger is a 1.9L factory Eaton piece that’s been ported by Lee Latozke at Latozke Racing. The nitrous he credits to the Nitrous Outlet.<\/p>\n
