Default 10s first time out !

Finished up my 2 year project just in time for my local Fbody clubs track rental. Purchased the car as a bare shell in sept 2016 and just over 2 years from the day i towed it home i was able to make its first pass.

00 Z28

-Fast 92/92
-Untouched 243 heads, just a spring swap
-Ed Curtis Cam
-GTP Injectors
-Electric Water pump
-85mm MAF and FTP 98mm lid
-Speed Engineering Headers/True Duals
-Yank SS 4000 stall
-4L60e with only a B&M shift kit and Corvette Servo
-10 bolt w. 3.42s
-Front Coil overs
-MWC LCAs, Chassis mount tq arm
-UMI Upper and lower front control arms
-PA Racing Tubular K member
-VFN hood
-17/15 Race Stars, Hooser QTP radial rears, mickey T front runners.
-Lots of free weight reduction

I expected to go High 11s with 11.5 being the main goal, first pass off the trailer was 11.164 @ 121 with a 1.55 60', just leaving off idle.

Needless to say i was bit shocked.

Next pass i decided to stall up to around 2000, light turned green and i cut her loose...1.52 60’ and a 10.909 @ 123 ! I was in disbelief.

Rest of the passes in no particular order…



1.61…11.009 @ 124

1.51…10.911 @ 123

1.48…10.915 @ 123

1.49…10.929 @ 123

1.52…10.939 @ 123

1.52…10.949 @ 123

1.51…10.913 @ 123



With the best pass of the day being…



1.47….10.84 @ 124 !



Nice day for racing !











Slip from best pass



Back on the trailer under its own power... 60e and 10 bolt still in working order !

Nothing too too major, other than the stuff listed above, its just got Ozite carpet and all the regular weight reduction stuff.(no back seats, no AC, etc) The car weights either 3030,3031 or 3037. The last digit on the scale was a little messed up as you'll be able to see below. Also, i only had 1 seat in the car. Not a aluminum seat thought, just a knock off recaro style.

^^you beat me to it.
My car used to leave like that before the ARB. As you make more power it will start unloading the tires. Best $300 I ever spent.
