Default Drove the Camaro to Bremerton Raceway..

Unfortunatly, I had to trailer it home.

I did get to make 3 1/2 passes though.

For the first three passes I ran off the wastegate at 9-10psi, at this boost level it dynoed about 630rwhp.

On the first pass, I left off idle and rolled out to a 1.928 60ft. LOL!

60ft 1.928
330ft 4.816
1/8th 7.143 @ 105.72mhp
1000ft 9.140
1/4 10.815 @ 134.89

On the second pass, I left abit harder, loaded up the converter abit.
60ft 1.695
330ft 4.532
1/8th 6.833 @ 106.53mph
1000ft 8.815
1/4 10.477 @ 135.97 mph

Left pretty much the same as the last pass.
60ft 1.738
330ft 4.510
1/8th 6.800 @ 107.25mph
1000ft 8.773
1/4 10.432 @ 135.91mph

Then on the next pass, I got kinda greedy... and upped the boost to 17psi (about 750 ish rwhp)
60ft 1.684
330ft
1/8th
MPH
1000ft
1/4

Right before the 60' the car attempted to perform the 1-2 shift... Thats all she wrote. I'll get it torn down in the next few days to see what popped, initial thought is input shaft to the trans.

Btw, this is with 17" ZR-1 wheels all the way around

If ya get that thing to hook, watch out. Yea, at them levels things are going to be breaking, that's also my worry.

Wow, then your really going to have to watch things, for when you leave hard. My key to not breaking much is to leave at high enough rpm that I am guranteed some slip. That's been all of my 1.5x's, spinning.

Nice to see it finally run Ryan! Last time I had one do that it was the conveter. We know you have a great converter so I would not be suprised if it was the input shaft

See you later this weekend!

Aww man sorry to see it go down already...

Did you have much street duty on the new setup, or just breaking it in at the track? Good luck with your new tranny. Maybe time for a 2 spd?
