okay well i finally got to take the car to the local 1/8 mile track, ive had the car on the road for about a month so i havent learned the car yet i ran three times and spun at the lights, and when it hit second it spun untill i took my foot out of it
first run second run third run
R/T .865 .891 .558
60' 2.191 2.394 2.336
330' 6.165 6.601 6.325
1/8 9.754 9.801 9.600
MPH 68.52 78.58 76.94

i need to learn this car, i let off in the first run when the car started spinnin in second as you see the slow mph, i think i can get this thing going a solid 9.3 once i get it to hook a lil better. any ideas aside from new rubber i know its a must but maybe in a month im still gonna run it if we get a nice day

i didnt know the numbers would run together like that, they were spaced out, oh well you get the idea

buckner01

this thing should go faster than that right, its an lt1, auto, shift kit, super comp headers, y-pipe, exhaust, air foil, cold air intake, chip, and ive got 255 50 16 falken tires

I think you should be a little faster. My brother's LT1 TA runs
8.80@80.5 /2.01 60ft. On some heavy *** 18" Chrome Ruff wheels.
He's got Long Tubes, ORY, Cutout, Coldair kit, bfg drag radials.

Should be faster IMHO, but seat time will help out some. You might want to get a real tune on it instead of a chip to take full advantage of the mods.

i guess i should take some air out of the tires too, i had like 35 psi in them... should i be closer to like 25 probly?

What you need is some Drag Radials. I bet you'll get in the 8's with drag radials.

put the psi around 18. 25 is way too much to be able to hook.

yeah you should run faster if you have headers check for a burnt spark plug wire something is not right

Gotta have it hook for some good #'s. I run 8.3's consistent with my stock motor, have been 8.27.

How much MPH do you trap with that 8.27?? I also have an LT1 and want to get it as fast as possible with just bolt ons.

83.29mph

I have a bolt on 95 Lt1 a4 TA and run consistant 8.3x in the eighth without nitrous. When the weather is good I consistantly see 8.2x. My mph is usually 83.xx when it is in the 8.2x range. Get some drive time and some drag radials and it will do wonders!
