Stock 1992 Corvette 1/4 mile

Published 2022-12-06
Completely stock 1992 base Corvette
Automatic trans
2.59 axle ratio

This is +2,000 ft DA. Owners of automatic 2.59 geared LT1 C4s have reported as fast as 13.3 @ 106 mph bone stock in very good air (-2,000 ft DA) which is on par with what i'm seeing out of mine. They only appear to be about 2 mph slower than C5s with the same trans. I have driven several auto C5s and they don't feel any different SOTP to me.

    Nice run. I test drove a super low mile 96 collectors edition with the 330hp LT4. Sweet car. It moved out pretty good too. C4 doesn't get enough love.

    Yikes. You couldn't find a quiet freeway for this test? You went by a stationary car right at the top of the quarter mile.
  • Pretty impressive for a stock auto. I knew the LT1s were torquey… but I didn’t expect them to pull quite that much up top. Especially at 2000ft altitude is impressive.

    Good old LT1, well not the oldest LT-1, and not the newest LT1, it’s a little confusing lol. That’s fast for the early to mid 90s👍

    How responsive is it with the auto transmission? Thinking about picking it up but all I’ve ever drove are Toyota family cars that take a full second to accelerate after pushing the pedal, so I have some preconceptions about autos

    Is this with 2.59 gears or 3.07 gears? Do the 3.07 mph more than the 2.59 gears in the 1/4 mile? I’m in the market and looking now at a Pristine 94 Auto
