Default Dipped into the 11's.

Went out to the track for the first time since last year. Only thing that changed over the year was I put in a tubular K member in preparation of my turbo build.

Car is a 95z. Leather, power windows locks blah blah. Has most of the ac system intact.

LS3
Tsp 229/236-.624/.615 112lsa cam
Headers
92mm tb
T56
And a crying for life 10 bolt with 3.42 factory gears.
Wheels are race star 15x4.5 up front and 15x10 with 295/55 et streets in the rear.

Last year I ran 12.43@118.6 with a 2.03 60'


This year I managed an 11.67@122.47 with a 1.83 60'

I was happy with it. Wish I would've gotten my spray dialed in, in hopes of a 10.xx pass but I wasn't able to get it dialed in, in time.

Still can't believe the 10 bolt took 15 sub 2.0 launches. (It's been whining and making nasty noises for about 3 years now.)

Hoping to try and get out once more and click off that 10 with the 10 bolt.






Tossed the car on the scale and it weighed way less than I thought it did!

I'd like to dip into a 10 of some sort on spray. All of these passes were on motor only. A 10.99 is just fine for me. I've got a turbo kit in the garage that was supposed to be on the car this year but I ran out of coin to build the fuel system. It'll be out and about turbo next year! And hoping for a 9.99. It's a total street car. So I'll get to make a couple glory runs before getting booted. No cage for this car.

It's all there. I don't think I'll have a problem with the 295 et streets. Just need to spray it. My tuner wasn't around to pull any timing before I drag raced last weekend so I didn't t want to chance blowing up the ls3. Lol

Thanks HCI2000SS. I attribute most of my gains from me actually being able to shift. Last year I was having some clutch issues. This year I can actually bang gears again.
