12.62 @ 108mph on a crappy 1.88 60ft. time for suspension!

 

Congrats on the time, you should be going quite a bit faster though permitting the DA wasn't anything crazy. Were you on street tires?

 

Which track? Congrats on the 12s

 

DA was way high, didnt calculate it but I'm stationed in jacksonville, NC right on the coast with humidity worse than houston. Track doesnt prep for tnt and doesn't have a good layer of rubber down. I wish I could upload the go pro vids but youtube isn't working or just takes way too long for a 1080P file. I'm running toyo proxes TQ, stock susp. 60ft wouldnt go under a 1.88. Launch is good, not spinning that bad but then again this track with slicks dudes spin so I expect it. Launching off the converter at 2500, tried to push the rpms up a little but the brakes wouldnt hold it jumped.

 

just calculated the DA and it was at 1900 to 2200 ft throughout the night.

 

sounds like the car could use a little tlc. i went 12.7s on 245 goodyear gscs with a bolt-on ls1 in worse da.

who tuned it?

 

Congrats on your new sit up and ET.

 

With cooler weather you will be rockin out!

 

Get that 60ft down to 1.5 to 1.6s and you would be good.

 

yah I know, new torque arm from UMI is coming....just gotta get the cash saved up because I want a new panhard bar and LCA's to go with. think the car will 60ft on a better track. Going to be spraying soon, its just too damn hot to work on the car and I am super busy with work all the time. Train train train is all we seem to do in the marine corps.

 

yea i go a 12.6 @110 on that track on a 1.9 60 no cam or stall who tuned it?

 

not bad for a lil 5.3

 

I just noticed that in his Sig too, makes a little more sense now.


To the OP. You should check out our local site www.rwhp.us Lots of fbody guys on there. We're all out of Jacksonville/Havelock area. We're going to the track Aug 12th if you want to meet up with us. I'm Juiced91Z on the boards.

 

Congrats on the times, I thought about putting a 5.3 in my car just so I can play with it untill I can build a motor. Whats the weight of your car?
