Thumbs up ARE LS1: 9.04@152! It's Getting There!

Wade ran the Camaro again today, and first pass off the trailer was a Good one. 1.40 60' , 9.046@152 running the nitrous fat. 2nd pass the nitrous was leaned up a little and it went a 1.37 60' on the back wheels with a big wheelie heading towards the guardrail so he had to get out of it carefully and not let it come down crashing hard...

That is all for today as the track was busy and only 2 runs were made.

All in all a good day, and 8's are just a pass away! I am wondering if this 9.046 has put it to the Top of the stock suspension list?

I was talking to Mikey at Rapid Motorsports today at the track.He said they can't get it to spray off the line.If they can get juice off the line its an easy 8 second run! Way to go! BTW Mikey went 10.175 today N/A in 70 degree weather.I forget the DA and all that but it wasnt that good.I was down 2 tenths all day and almost 3 mph.He should have 9's N/A very soon.A cold day at Cecil will fix that

Finally the answer , we were sitting at the track yesterday wondering where George sat on his ET, we knew it was close. It looks like he gets to keep taop dog for a little longer.

Man that is close

Dave,

Are the pic that were on the racetronix site of your car after you changed colors and went to efi still available online? If so could you give a link or email them to me at darren@extremeperf.com

My intake system is very similar to yours and would like to see how you did some things

Thanks
Darren

The N2O delay problem has been fixed hence this past weekend's wheel stands and better shorts.

LQQK for some 8s passes soon!

Im sure when people are getting into the 1200hp range trashing factory blocks can get pretty expensive. LOL I dont blame them at all. That is why I switched to one myself.
