Default 7.40 Nitrous LS stock suspension

For years everyone has always been after to me to run my nitrous car thru the 1/4 and I had never done it. I had coasted to a 7.82 two years ago in testing(which was the s/s ls nitrous record) but had never held it past the 1/8 until today...

Turns out I can't make it all the way thru with out running out of gear but I made it right past the 1000' and she was begging for mercy so I had to lift. Still interesting either way just to see what the car would do if I just held my foot down a little longer.

right lane

That's sick! I can't even imagine what a 1.12 60ft feels like! Job well done. Time to change that sig

Congrats sir! The more impressive to me is the 1.12 on that damn 275. That is awesome.

Mind sharing how quick you have all the kits on by?

That's just flat moving. As long as the bolt touches any part of the stock bolt holes, it's considered stock susp correct, even if you relocate things?

That was Bobby in the left lane. The big block ran a 4.77 yesterday also with baby jets.

Lower control arm are in factory holes and its a 10 year old spohn tq arm on the car. Coil springs and shocks are still in factory location. Its more stock than most any cars you see.

No 1/4 mile racing for me plus I don't think I can take the crowd at that race.

I would just raise the limiter and see how far it could make it before parts came out.

That's definitely impressive. What kind of setup do you have/numbers and weight if you don't mind my asking?
