Default moderate pass on new motor

Just want to know what you guys think of this time slip... 2001 z06

RT .489
60' 2.436
330' 5.647
1/8 8.128
mph 99.83
1000' 10.242
1/4 11.976
mph 132.37

Didnt really push the car hard in 1st or 2nd, 3rd was a little harder, 4th was hard... all shifts below 6000.... and a full tank of gas.

Thumbs up

For some initial shake down runs on the new set up, good mph James...car looks like it's making some HP for sure. I'm sure after some final tuning and finishing what you told me about...that SOB is gonna haul azzzzz. Lookin' forward to seeing it in action...

Congrats and hope you and Jason's little venture turns out well. I know you always have and will continue to do great work out of ya'lls new shop...

Nice to have a local LSX shop you can trust around these neck of the woods...

Gotta little project I need to talk to you about...

Lee was telling me about y'alls shop. I echo DJ. Its nice to have a local shop. I could just about chunk a rock and hit your place. As for the shakedown, you picked up 32.54 mph from the 1/8 to the 1/4. Thats REAL strong no matter how you look at it. You've got .9 to 1.01 left in the 60' to work with. So, the car should be in the 10.40's pretty easily with that MPH. If you wind it out a bit more and pick up some MPH you should be in the low 10's.

Thanks J-Rod. We still have a few more things to do with the car, but the real goal set for now is a good mph at Texas mile. Lee is a good friend of mine, stop by the shop some time. It's not much to look at but it works for now.

120 S. Alexander, just behind DQ. We are actually facing Texas ave. It's a very small shop, we are looking for a larger place for a chassis dyno set up in the very near future.

no didnt think of a video at the time. Showed DJ and Stang's Bane the time slip and Stang's Bane actually drove the car himself yesterday. Send him a message to see what he thought. This motor was designed by James at Rage Motorsports.

I will just say this about it.

My neck is sore and if the head rests were not padded I would have a big knot on the back of my head. The car is even faster than those traps indicate. I don't think it would have a problem seeing 135+++ traps on a better tire.

Not even going to think about what the motor is really capable of with better exhaust under it....

I have a new shop to do business with for sure. I appreciate the ride yesterday James, I stop back by before too long.
