Well my car no longer has the creature comforts like A/C, powersteering, ABS, rear bumper support, lightweight K-member, upper and lower a-arms, doorbars and a ton of odds and ends that I have removed over the years. I weigh in at 235lbs so it's not the lightweight driver mod. LOL I also took out the power leather seats and went with manual cloth Camaro seats but my car started out at 3,700lbs raceweight about 8yrs. ago so it's been a work in progress. I should be able get the car down to 3390 w/o the passenger seat but I haven't tried that yet. Later

 

Love your T/A, I remember it from the mag article. It's what I aspire my T/A to be like, same color and everything. I'm forever stuck in the 12's for now as kids (daycare) and car payments take priority. I hope to do a cam swap in the Spring and shoot for lower 12's

Nice numbers again!

That is a badass ride and it sure flies, whats that car weigh.

 

Thanks i appreciate the compliments and I know exactly what you are talking about with kids and car payments. Looks like your car is running ok, these LT1'S LOVE A LITTLE N2O SO JUST BUY a used kit for $300-350 and get into the 11's on a 100shot. When my car was stock 13.90's, I put a 125shot, ran 12.60's@110mph. Stock weight, tires etc... Give it a shot you won't be disappointed. LATER Clint

 

Hey Clint nice numbers. Havent talked to you in forever. I see you finally ditched your magic cc306 lol. My motor is still running good but my car has seen better days. My Dad and I have been thinking of swapping the lt1 into his 73 camaro. Depending on how hard that is.

Later man pm me if ya want.

 

i went to the track on saturday and had the intank fuel pump go out on me but got to make two passes. I had a friend helping and he put added 2 qts of oil to my enginebefore I stopped him. So the car is smoking a little on the videos but it had too much oil in it. Anyway check them out.

Why did your friend do that?!

 

I was going to add half a quart and check it but I had two qts by the car so he put both of them in before I stopped him. LOL

 

Damnit man!

What are you 60 footing?

 

That would be the last time, that friend would help me at the track, lol.

Nice times Clint. Keep at it!

 

Well you see on the first pass at the end of the track when I was braking hard the oil pressure dropped to zero at the very end and when I was about to turn the key off it came back up. Thats the first time it happened to me but they say thats normal b/c most of the oil is in the topend and when I pressed the brakes hard the rest went to the front of the pan? The 60's on those runs werent good 1.51 and 1.54 but I did learn that I need some rear shocks to keep the car from squatting And that I need to tighten up the front so it doesn't come up too quick. I think after adding rear drag shocks and getting the car to hook well it eill go mid 10's easily. Later
