I am hoping for high mph, but the humidity (estimated 95%) might hurt me. If I do run a 12.2, I would expect it to be around 114-115mph. However, I am thinking do weather/track prep I might only see 12.4-12.6 @ 112mph or so. You coming up?

I'm plannin on going tomorro, what time u leavin at?

Havent dyno'd yet, but before Lloyd's heads/LT's/52mmTB/MAF/CSI I made 340rwtq @ 4800rpm. I had 300rwtq+ @ 2200rpm up to like 5200rpm.

one more question; how's your traction and how many times have you hit the track? THEN I can answer

Well, this will be my 5th or 6th time at the track. With just bolt-ons and street tires I ran 13.38 @ 105.8mph w/ 2.14 60'. Then I did homeported heads and the cam and used DR's. I then made one run (with the cam/homeported heads/dr's) right after a car split its oil pan in my lane! I ran a 13.88 @ 109mph w/2.3# 60' and kept spinning till 3rd gear.

OK, I will guesstimate a 12.8-13.2 your first run second run will be close to a solid 13 to 12.9:cool:

i say 12.4 12.2 with spinning problems @114 to 116 this is gonna be dead on watch :p

My boy!I hope your right John. The only problem is that its raining right now in Epping. It is going to be about 95% humid + traction might be bad. I am guessing 12.6, but we'll see.

well at 400 rwhp i did a 12.4 at 116 with a 2.1 60' see vid in sig Your car should be right around that and you have a better feel for your car as you driven it more then i have driven mine at the time. so with dr's and getting a 1.9 60 or less i will give you a 12.2 but if you do like me and get a 2.1 12.4 that is why i know what your gonna run :D

While your around do you have instant messanger instead of forum tag lol

Remember though, nitrous give a lot of torque more then horses!! you ran yours with a blast of torque juice!! He will do around 12.9

No i dont. Shoot me emails if you want jrstern95z28@yaoo.com

What type of tires? The track is not really prepped on Wednesday and Friday nights due to the many street cars.... Last Sunday the track became extremely slick late in the day to the point of calling the race. Since then there have been street tires and rain... My guess is you will have an extremely difficult time getting traction.

You do realize bolt on lt1's do 12.9's and he has heads and cam?? also before he did the heads and a few other things he did mid 12's How in gods name do you figure a 400rwhp car will do 12.9?? maybe with a 2.5 or worst 60' wich i don't see happening with bf goodrich dr's and a decent driver.

John, I havent run a mid 12 yet, but I did make power for mid 12 (351rwhp) before the heads/LT's/TB/MAF/CSI. 351rwhp with a decent hook (2.0') with good weather should be an easy 12.5's, so I would think I am faster with the right conditions. We'll see tonight if the track is open.

tntub - bfg dr's @ 15-18psi. I'll play with it as I run. It is suppsoed to be raining now but stop and be sunny after noon. Think the track will open still?

I htought you went bak up there and ran it? never got to?

No, that was the last weekend in October last year. I havent been up since. I wont let you down though :) Just aslong as the racing conditions arent too bad.

If you read his numbers and times he has run and had a new setup now THAT is why I say he will run that number. How hard is it to get traction in our cars w/o slicks? Come on when you got your car setup with a new setup you can tell me you ran great numbers? I bet it took a couple times before you got that number in your sig right? He has a new setup, the track conditions are more then likely gonna be harsh and if he has never driven it with as much power as now @the track, I give him 12.9 but I will benefit the doubt and say good conditions he will pull a 12.5 because his setup is pretty solid

if you can hold off and go tommorow morning the track is so much better on saturdays & sundays. also if my bolt on lt1 can do a 12.88 with a 1.9 60' you will have no problem doing mid to low 12's.

actually the best times in my sig was my first and third time going to the track. the n/a best time was maybe a couple months after i bought the car and my first time to the track with it. my best nitrous time was the first time ever going to the track with nitrous. and if your a semi decent driver and you drive your car on the street well the track is no big deal. Oh and as for the hooking comment i have seen poeple cut some awesome 60' on dr's it is all the driver i can't hook on dr's but i kno some poeple that cut 1.7's with them.

Cant go tomorrow, but i plan on going Oct. 11th (Sat.) Anyone have opinions on mph? I'd say 112-114mph .

would be better if you would dyno that thing oh speaking of wich there is a dyno day coming up I just ordered my ls6 intake so come put your on the rollers...:D but i will say 114

and the results are in 18.8 at 88 oh wait that is a red lt1 :p so what did you do man?
