10.18 @ 132 at LACR That's right, on Friday we took out the Z28 as asked by Rob @ Strictly. He had just finished installing some items on the car and we wanted to see the improvements. After some mishaps on the way there, Rob finally got to the track at around 8:30PM. We quickly unloaded the car and strapped Jen in. Her first pass was the best and the DA was staying right around 4300'.
On a Pro-Light:
RT. = .160
60' = 1.436
33' = 4.167
1/8 = 6.475
MPH = 106.237
1000' = 8.424
1/4 = 10.180
MPH = 132.471
This is still the N/A setup with a 135 shot. The gears maybe holding us back, but I would like to try again for that elusive 9s. I will get the video up possibly early this week. Thanks again Rob @ Strictly
for your help, we might have a factory stock short block in the 9s very soon.

Thanks guys, we are hoping to hit Irwindale this Thursday. 
:dunno: Rob said it was a 135 shot when I asked to confirm it. We did get rid of our dragging OEM brakes that kept slowing down the car. It now has Aerospace fronts.
It is all BMR rod-end stuff, Wolfe Anti-Roll bar, Hals up front w/Eibachs, Lakewoods in the rear w/stock springs.
No, not really, I would venture to guess it would (at best) a 9.50 @ 142 ... if we had the gears to support a run like that.

So I guess now its time to up the shot to a 175 and shoot for some 9's at palmdale. The aerospace brakes are a nice system. Did you do the front and rears with the abs delete box and manual booster?

She loves the brakes, she almost can stop at the first turn out. They are only the fronts 
I'm not sure if the rears will help out as well. I would liek to get them. We had previously done the ABS delete box and Manual brake setup with the stock brakes.

) if we continue to run nitrous. I also have to keep in mind the 408 that will be replacing the stock short block for next season.

Nice runs guys, I am hoping to have my car at least running and racing in the next month or so, although still undergoing a lot of changes. Maybe we can meet up and head to LACR or Fontana sometime.

I would swap to the 3.73's. Those brakes do work very well. With a 408 sixies will not be effected and probably faster out the hole with some more juice.
