So you have a head/cam car that only goes high 12's with a 110 trap speed?:confused:

redlineracing Apr 5, 2009 10:53 PM

You either can't drive or there is something wrong with the car..

I ran a 12.9 with a lid and exhaust..

i ran 12.80 with stock manifolds and y pipe with my 2000 6 speed z, just took off the catback and put a lid on were the only mods, on street tires btw

99_Z28 Apr 6, 2009 01:16 PM

Your could really use some good tires and a tune. That setup should be low 12's high 11's.

78novacaine Apr 6, 2009 01:47 PM

yeah, its definitely down on power, my full exhaust and lid car traps that high, what power did it make when you got it tuned?

if vegas is anything like tucson his times are ok but still alot left on the table.

JPCrazyLegs Apr 6, 2009 07:25 PM

My stock firehawk ran a 12.9, and its automatic. You need a dyno tune, something is wrong.

redlineracing Apr 7, 2009 09:52 PM

Yes, my 12.9 was on street tires.

Black Apr 8, 2009 07:32 AM

Yeah, what they said. There is a leak somewhere, fix it and it will be a totally different animal.

Cool! Nice to see that you're happy but I'm sure your car can do better. Nice setup man.

yes i 100% agree it should be low 12's high 11's with money tight tires and money for tuning just wasent there I spent for a minor tune and went out to see what she would run on a shitty tune just minor things tuned "full tune "comming as i have a huge rear main seal job that will bring in some green tomorrow an E 350.. and hope too get a tune b4 the next track outting out next week sorry for the long reply and agian this is with 99% stock tune the other 1% is for pressure for the brakes. every time i launched even after burnining out i was spinning the tires at least .4-.6 seconds with about too blow stock dimension bf goodrich's not even an 1/8 inchon em. .

I am a mechanic an my car is running great i used all arp bolts when bolting her back up with mls HEad gaskets im just not pushing her hard Enough and To be "100 % truthful" I set the limiter at 6500 I just dont feel comnfortable pushing her any further than that without a full tune / money Constraints. i appreciate all the positive and negative comments will just push me to having a well tuned car too beat up those 11 and 12 second imports at las vegas motorspeedway . more money and ill be posting up my new times next friday :) thanks agian :chug:

Good job
If you get your 60 down with some really good tires I don't see why you won't be in the 11s. If I can get my heavy ass goat to run a 12.2 with just a cam I don't see why a head/cam Fbody can't do the same. It's all about the 60 foot time. Before I ran a 12.2 I was running 13.1X at 110mph with a 60foot time the same as yours. I drop the 60 foot time to 1.78 and I run a 12.2 so 60foot is key. imo. regardless sounds like you have a nice car and I bet you'll be in the low 12s soon :)

update on fridays midnight mayhem i went down too my local track agian over the weekend and it seemed that imports would not stop breaking after hours of waiting watching clean up i saaw a fello Red Trans am that he had almost the same mods that i have with a slightly larger cam 225 and new valves on the heads 241's. we both used nitto nt555's with his time
him 60's 1.761 et 12.63 mph 106.86 him being an auto also
me 60's2.122 et 13.181 wt 106.48 me a m6
i was disapointed that my nittos were at the point of exploding im saving my pennies up for some m/t e.t street and in 2 weeks im getting redemption . any advice ?:D

trx250r Mar 17, 2010 02:45 AM

i would get a good tune first. your mph seems really low for ~400 horse. read up on some launch techniques on this site to get that 60 under 2 seconds.
