1976 Camaro Finally went ot the track Saturday night at a last minute deal. I went out there thinking I still had a full bottle from Vernons Summers Last Blast from last month, but when I got out there that bottle was completely empty. So a friend of mine gave me a bottle and i could only get 650-700 psi out of it when heated. So I ran it anyways. Was having some traction issues but just a little more adjusting and it will be perfect. Here is this pass. The next pass after this one, we dropped the tire pressure and I put 2 degrees of timing in the box and it ran a 6.42 @ 112 mph.We didnt get that you on video cause my buddy forgot to take the lens cover off, we got to hear it though.We didnt think it was that bad since this is the first time at the track in over a year and I never even pulled the hood off that night. Especially since we didnt have much nitrous.

Sweet car.
That's some mega MPH for a 6.42, won't be long before you clip off some 5's. Mine with the timing backed off will run mid 6.0's at 112 (N/A) and 5.90's at 114 with low 1.3X 60 fts when the timing is up. Once you get that bitch to hook you'll be sitting pretty. What's your goal for the car to run?
