Default My 614 RWHP Z at the track for the first time...

That is, first time with the supercharger and slicks . I obviously need to do more practicing, and need to find where I can launch RPM wise once I get a good burnout. I was only able to get these two runs in at the time, but more is sure to come. I am confident the car is 10 second capable.

Here's the vid;

The HUD is made by a company called "Defi". I bought it years ago, but just recently installed it. I don't think LPE even carries it anymore.

Thanks for the compliments.

Nice vids man, the 2nd run was much cleaner than the 1st. Practice makes perfect!

Thanks. Hopefully I will be able to go again in the next few weeks and get some more runs in.

Slicks are not something just anyone can throw on and go do well with. It really was difficult keeping the car straight and on the track.

You're definitely making some nice power.
A 10.90 @ 130+mph should be there when you get some more
seat time.

What does your car weight right now? with that much power and a killer set up you should be in low tens EASY I have seen a consistent 10.3 with less power on an F-Body.

Great Video love the prestage that was sick I remember my first time at the track I had huge jitters

Agreed, I was thinking you should drop a whole second off that first run. GO RACE!!!

Auto's with big stalls are better 1/4 time getters, but I have seen good times with 6-speeds as well. Thanks again for the compliments. The car weighs 3440 (without me in it).

I think 10.9's sound about right. I don't know about low 10's though. I plan on going again to the track soon, so we'll see. It might be possible with a cooler day I suppose.
