He pulled strong for having 4 people in his car. If it was just 1 of you in each, he'd pull stronger IMO. Good runs

The Camaro did a lot better than I thought he would with all those passengers. I'm honestly surprised you didn't hold him off longer when you went from a dig. Get a new converter so you can actually get out of the hole and then try again.

You're friend almost lost it in the last video, haha.

"LS2 Portworks intake manifold, 33lb injectors" Thought those TBSS had the truck intake? The intake that is alot better then any LS2 intake? The LS2 intakes suck ballz even ported.

Awesome! it's like watching my old TBSS race my current Z28 haha. I had a 06 TBSS AWD with very similar mods to yours, except i had circle D 3200 verter, and envoy 17's. (i didnt have the ported intake tho). I ran low 13's to high 12's depending on conditions.

Were you running with the stock 20's? I picked up .17 sec by swapping them out at the track. The 3200 stall gave me another .2 at the track. So combine that with some weight removal and your TBSS will movin.

Nice runs.
