Deeper into the 11's I go....
October 28th Atco Raceway for "GTO King of the Hill" Event
Previous to this event the car was a consistant 11.5 car with a best of 11.48 @ 121mph!
First pass off the trailer:
60' - 1.673
1/8- 7.696
mph- 91.24
1/4- 11.808
mph-122.52.... gained a full mph over last PB!
Second pass all new PB's:
60' - 1.597
1/8- 7.268
mph- 94.10
1/4- 11.291
mph- 124.4
Third pass, going easy attempting to bracket race, dial-in was 11.50:
60' - 1.752
1/8- 7.575
mph- 92.42
1/4- 11.662
mph- 122.88
Over all it was a great day for everyone there... about 50 GTO's I was the Fastest Six Speed there, 3rd Fastest over all.
Just got back from the local weigh station... 3740lbs was the race weight! The only things I did different from my 11.48 @ 121.5mph were, some weight reduction and disconnected the front sway bar...beyond that just driving.
This is all on; stock block, heads, cam, drive shaft, C.V shafts, Axle stubs, springs, shocks and then some! I have a total of 23 passes on the ProCharger set-up this year and 40 passes on the car overall since I brought it home... still with more seat time, I'll go faster!
Who said GTO's aren't good drag cars??
Can't wait until I put a cam in it now!!
Blurry
11.29 @ 124 with a 1.597
Sideways off the line on slicks... thought I missed 2nd gear, let out and back into it still ran 11.8 with a whopping 122mph
