Default New Best with B1 cam/Vigilante 3200

Got some passes in today in the cool air but broke the 10 bolt again on my last pass in the finals of trophy street brackets. The guy i was lined up against redlighted and i one right off the bat but i wanted to make my last pass and try to get the 11.49 i came after but instead the car HOOKED hard and KABOOM! I spun my way to a new best today but left me wondering what was still on the table. I need a bigger converter to help with the cam but now it looks like my converter money is going to a rebuild <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> Guess it's time to slap the 4.10s and ET Drags on the car and see if i can get it into the 11.40s before the LS6 intake and ASP pulley goes on later. Time is in the sig <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

<img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> That sucks about your rear end Scott. Glad you got a new best.

Yep just a little setback but should be running again with some 4.10s in the next week or two <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> .

These small cams aren't so bad at all <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I'm happy with my trap speed considering im not done with all the bolt ons. Might see some 119s late in the year with the future mods soon <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Street: what was your raceweight that day?? Awesome Times BTW <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

sucks to hear about the rear.. I just got a set of et streets to try out with mine this spring since I cant do crap on the nittos anymore with the 224 cam. The best 60 ive been on nittos was a 1.58 before the cam... I just hope my rear can hold up for a few passes <img border="0" alt="[angel]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_angel.gif" />

best of luck on the rebuild! are you still going with the 10bolt again??

I run the 26x10.5x15 ET Streets are lately i can not get them to hook unless i run 14psi. As you can see if they hook hard you can break a rearend.

I have located a 10 bolt with the 4.10 gear setup that i want and will try to throw it in the car soon and head back to see if i can run some 11.40s before the cool air is gone <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

dang.. i was hoping those tires would hook.. are you running 15x8's also? Thats the setup im gonna try so hopefully they will hook a little better than my nittos did <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Hopefully i have a friends 10bolt on backup right now so if i blow im good to go with a replacement <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

good luck and go get those 11.4's.... im gonna be chasing you this spring <img border="0" alt="[shoot]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[worship]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" /> HHEHEHE

Yep i run 15x8 Draglites and i now currently have a set of 26x10 Drags for the 4.10s.

Good luck trying to catch me <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> im shooting for the LS6 intake and some other bolt ons i don't have to see how far this setup can go before i get a set of heads later on.
