Default Turbo 6.0 Monte Carlo SS goes 10s @ Mile high

This is my friend Davids Monte Carlo SS turbo 6.0 ly6 running 10.4 @ 133mph
At Bandimere Speedway track is over 5800ft and DA that day was around 8500ft
He still has a lil room for improvement and looking for lower times, what you guys think?

Can't tell if it's on a slick or a radial, but either way, you need to get that porpoising out of the car at the hit. Try stiffer compression on the rear shocks and slow the front end down. It's bangin the tire pretty hard and you can see it crush the sidewall and spring back up. Other than that, it looks good.

It looks like the rear end bottomed out or hit the bump stops pretty hard on the launch?

Opinions are like butt-holes, everyone has one and most of them stink. LOL
That being said I'll throw mine in here too. I watched the video frame by frame. It doesn't appear to be squatting or lifting, simply hitting the tire hard. The front end is rising too quickly and hitting the stops causing the porpoising. I would stiffen the front shock extensions and up the rear tire pressures a 1-2 psi and video it again. Looks great otherwise! Congrats!

I think it was just his tires getting traction that made it hit like that but he is looking into it to make the changes he needs before he runs it again
