2,900 rpm launch, just couldn't get to 3,000

I have found that the brake fluid is VERY dark which is why I find myself creeping forward when I stall to 3,000 rpm's.

I will be flushing the entire system in prep for next week nitrous racing.

I'm SOOOO excited about going 13's N/A!!!

Keep in mind, I built a NITROUS car, NOT N/A!!!

3:23 gears!
STOCK cam!
unported TB!

This completes 1 of my goals for this year.

I weighed the car and saw 2900 w/o driver, I left my helmet and a couple other items in there so it will see 2800's this year. Seeing 2,8XX's on the scale is another goal.

Then, 3rd goal... 11's obviously!

Weather was INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!
High 40's, Low 50's

I think I might actually be able to creep into the high 13.8's. If I address the brake fluid issue and can stall to 3,000 rpm's and maybe higher that is key!

Spraying for 11's next weekend!

 

how much NO2 are you putting on that thing? what trans, rear-end? And what all did you do to get 13's with an auto V6?

TONY

 

Ill let James tell you want he has but you dont have to have nitrous to run 13's in a V6. the quickest ive run so far is a 13.30@102.44 in 3000+ DA all motor, at sea level it should run 12's. All it takes is a good combination in motor/suspension/etc. just like any car.

 

Um, well, these runs were N/A
Trans-4L60E
Stock rear w/ powertrax locker and 3:23's

cold air, exhaust, weight reduction, converter... the usuals

 

Good deal. That thing is really moving for a V6.

 

Well i'm sure your mods are pretty extensive to get a 13.3 in a V6. But don't you think.... I wonder how fast i would be if you started with a V8? I can't talk too much trash though cause your car is a lot faster than mine

TONY

 

I don't see the reason to talk any trash to these V6 guys. None of them claim a V6 is a better platform to go fast than a V8. They are just having fun going quick with less.

 

Now, it's time to hit 11s on the spray.

 

my site is in my sig. It still a stock shortblock and daily driver with a fairly mild cam.

 

Its nice to see what these v6's can do. Nice times man.



Thats my goal before this coming up summer is to be into the 13's without touching the motor. I have been 15.01 in hot, near 100% humidity, lid, exhaust, HBHRacing's "mod", slipping clutch, hanging brakes(dont ask), open rear 3.23's with a 2.12 60'...not bad I think. I should run a 14.85 or so with a good clutch and weather. Next week we should be out of the upper 80 degree weather with the 95%+ humidity and I will head back to the track....cool front coming through south Louisiana next week! just in time for the Thunder Racing shootout!

I have since installed the DIS-4 and I have 3.73's a and posi sitting here in my room which SHOULD be good for low 14's. With a couple g's in suspension, DR's, and computer tuning, Harlan(HBHRacing) and I are shooting for the first ever(as far as we know) 13 sec v6 without ever opening up or touching the motor.


Then I've got a date next summer with ZZ up in Michigan for a badass n/a motor to drop in for 12's on just the motor.

 

to run a 13 w/a stock motor you will need some real sticky tires, you will have to pull the belt, and probably need more than a 3.73 gear. Good luck with the project though!! Im pretty sure ill be in the 12's when i go down to sea level with my combo.

 

wow James I haven't seen you around in forever, I remember you from back in the day at v6fbody.com when I still had my firebird. Congrats on the times, thats amazing! Is Tiago still around? Hows his car running now a days?

 

Well thats why I said DR's...I think its possible. Its a given with heads,cam, ect to hit 13's...but this is my DD and we are videoing all the runs as we get close to 13's.

 

my boy Craig (Little G, if you know him) will be in the 13's more than likely by the end of the year, he isnt f@ckin around, hes gonna hit 13's....James can vouch for him, since he kinda knows the guy ....nothing on the inside has been touched, on stock manifolds and exhaust with missing cat

 

Nice job bro I just need to get off MY *** and get the 3.4s haulin *** again
