not bad , was it real hot out ?

I would expect a cammed car to trap at least 5mph higher and gain more than 21mph between 1/8 & 1/4 traps. that is more like a stock ls1 car top half gain , so it is definitely laying down on the top end. Fix that and tighten your 60 foot and you will be in the 11's in no time.

What camshaft is in the car? Sixty foot could definitely use some improvement.

Good job! Keep working at it, and you will get better and better. Some of our fastest clients run .3-.5 of a second quicker than similarly modded cars, and it is all about knowing your car. Keep up the good work a new PB is always exciting.

just ran your track through drag times da calculator , closest data for your track was at 6:53 yesterday so pretty close to your 7:05 time on your slip. It calculated out to 1560 da which isn't bad for down south but definitely much better weather to be had.

The car has a BTR stage 2 cam, Trunion upgrade, TSP headers, ORY, SLP dual-dual catback, 3200rpm FTI converter, SLP Lid and KN filter(probably too low for track but fine on street), auto transmission with drag radials.
