Video of 11.29 run @ 124 MPH.... Guys…
I get a lot of requests for sound clips of my car at idle, etc.….I finally just got a new digital camcorder and I built an “in car” camera mount for it. This video is actually from Famoso Dragstrip (Bakersfield) a couple of weeks ago. You can here how mild mannered the car is as I am approaching the tree. This run was at a D/A of 1100 feet, and I had 18 lbs. of tire pressure in my ET Streets (didn’t want to break). The car is in total “street trim”….big 285 Nitto’s on the front and a raceweight of 3400 lbs. I also took it easy with a 4500 RPM launch and no power shifting. I think there is an easy 10 second time slip in this car with a more aggressive driving style and a better Density Altitude. The car sixty footed 1.74 on this run. I’m heading back to Bakersfield next week and if the air is decent I might try to put it into the tens or on top of a flatbed….whichever comes first….LOL
I will also be posting a video of the car starting up and settling into an idle when I get some time….In the mean time you can check this vid out:

By the way, after I left the event, I filled up before I hit the freeway and clocked 30 MPG with 3.90 gears on the 100 mile cruise home averaging 75 MPH or so....It doesn't get much better than that in a true "dual purpose" vehicle with a stock GM 346 shortblock.
Regards,
Tony

RED LIGHT!!!! That run doesn't count, try again. 
Car sounds great man. It's amazing to see a car run that quick and still be capable of 30mpg. It's a great time to be a hot rodder.

I wish I got 30 MPG.My Z06 with 205 heads, 224/228 cam, Long Tubes,4.10s, and M6 trans only gets 25-26 on the freeway. Nothing to complain about, but a far cry from 30.
