Headed out to Speedworld today (1/14/2007) as we finally had some decent conditions. Last time out, my best was a 12.1 @ 117.3 with a 1.96 60'. Needless to say, traction was an issue.

I added LCA relocation brackets and ran a new best today of 11.754 @ 118.818. Here's a breakdown of the run:

r/t____014
60'___1.838
330'__4.979
1/8__7.618
MPH__94.180
1000'__9.790

E.T___11.754
MPH__118.818

I backed this up with about six 11.8xx passes. Not bad considering the car still has 3.23s in the back and hasn't been on the dyno yet. A few more tweaks and the car should have no problem getting me kicked off the track.

For those who aren't familiar with my car, it's a 396 LT1 with an LE2/4 setup, street twin, etc. bla bla.

Here's the video of the 11.7 run. The video was shot on a still camera, so the sound quality kind of sucks and there is no zooming:

The sixtys should still be lower....try some quick time pros and a high stall if you dont have it. Im running 1.6 sixtys and only making 11.9s with 323s and only 379 hp!

I'm running a 6 speed with 3.23s and the car is lowered, the sixtys aren't going to get any better until I gear it and setup the suspension. The car is primarily a street car, so not too worried about track times right now.
