Default Bolton+ Hotcam times from today

Took my formula to the local track (Infineon Raceway/Sears Point) for some fun today.

The car is engine boltons, LT4 cam (stock rockers) stock suspension& tires. 6 speed an 3.23 gear

I only managed 2 runs, the first was just a shakedown so I had a dismal 60' time. I need some better tires, gears and suspension, and I will get that damn 12 sec slip.


60' 2.40 2.27

E.T. 13.49 13.46

MPH 108.01 107.33



I'm pretty happy with it, especially the MPH. Most stockish LS1 cars were running 13.6-13.5, and most mustangs except for blown ones were in the 14's and 15's.

How much more help do you need?
I have longtubes, ORY, Corsa, EWP...etc.
Not to brag, but 108MPH is pretty good, considering this is a relatively small cam, with 1.5 stock rockers even.

Like posted above, a little traction and the right set of gears, and I'll have my 12 sec slip. Thats PLENTY for a daily driven car, at full weight with A/C and full interior and all that. Ion (madwolf) gave me a tune that is working great.

is your car a 93? I noticed you have 3.23's, im kinda with laxnmad on this one, I run 13.2 at 107 with long tubes and ory and tune from ion, thats cutting a 2.1 60 ft tho, i run 13.4 's cutting a 2.4 60ft at 107. Im not trying to shoot you down or brag or anything its just that sometimes i dont understand the times the hotcam puts out. My buddy has a z28 with a hot cam and he runs your times, it kinda ****'s me off to be honest. mabey being a used car mine has something done to it? I dont know.

Weather and DA, could have a big differance with his times. My car is almost 7/10ths quicker in good air, and low DA, then is the ***** heat of summer.

Its a '97, originally an automatic, so thats why the 3.23 gears. And it is the LT4 hotcam, ut with stock rockers, so there is probably another 10 hp there.

I converted those times for DA, and it comes out to 13.31@106.7

yes lots of people always overlook that! and i think those are pretty good time for having such high 60' times, those are the 60' times i had with nasty spining and no traction, so your car could easyly cut 12's,with good 60's

My car went from 12.9'-13.0's in the cooler months to mid 13's in the summer. My friends 94 is the same way. 11.7's with good weather to 12.4's in the summer.
