Took the car to the track for the very first time... it was the opening day for the track...sooo pretty much no prep work was done and well... no one was hoooking thats for sure!

anyways best two runs of the afternoon were...

2.1593.... 60 Foot
5.5782.... 330 Foot
8.3363 @ 90.14 1/8mile
12.5581 @ 116.89 1/4mile

2.2300.... 60 Foot
5.6849.... 330 Foot
8.4353 @ 90.67 1/8mile
12.6242 @ 117.80 1/4mile


going again this weekend... going to drop the tire pressure in hopes of cutting some better 60's and possibly shoot for 11's

 

Bud there really ain't no point in putting this up unless you say whats done lol.

 

Not bad for a first time out with bad track prep. Better traction and that 117 trap is plenty to put you in the 11s. Now, give us some specs on your car and mods.

 

car is a 1999 camaro SS M6

MS3 on a 114
Patriot Stage II LS1 heads
LS6 Intake
Pacesetter Longtubes,ORY,GMMG
LID, K&N Filter
Pro 5.0
LS7/LS2 Clutch Flywheel Combo
UMI Torque Arm
BMR LCAS + RLB
Subframes

Car made 420 rwhp and 400 rwtq SAE corrected on the dyno

MT ET Street Radials were at 35 PSI right off the highway


Next time out im gonna drop em to 18psi.

 

your 60ft time... is all you need for 11s.

2.1 is bad.

but in your defense..it is tough with a 6 speed.

thats what I get with my 6 speed camaro... even though it is stock.


also... another tip... if those are drag radials... air pressure is high in the tires.

 

haha yea.. it has the stock 10bolt with 3.42s so i was takin er easy on her the first time out... next time tire pressure is going down... and i'll launch her a little harder

 

nice, get that 60 down and you may see 11s

today at irwindale, my best 60 was a 1.98

my mods are LTs, ORY, Custom CORSA catback, and on 315 Nitto 555r DR's.

since you are more modded, you SHOULD see 11s IMO

 

Yep, DR's at 35 psi is a waste of time. You'll do alot better next time.

 

i have been leaving the line with the ebrake up and dragging the clutch slightly..... just to preload the drivetrain....... just a thought if you are worried about breaking something


this helps

 

Say buh-bye ten bolt!

 

Yeah... with 420rwhp

it is just about TIME brother... and time is not on your side.

I broke the 10bolt in my SS and it is stock... and I never had Drag radials on it. And with my 3rg camaro... broke the rear 3 times.... YES 3

sold the 3rd gen and put the money in my old VETTE...

 

Your trap speed is the same as my 12.1 @ 117 run. Tire pressure is a big thing with your 60'. With that rwhp/rwtq you are right on the edge of 11's. I'm hopping for 11's next time out too. My car's #'s 430rwhp & 403rwtq are really close to yours.

 

12.1 @ 117 was cam only 385rwhp/370rwtq.

 

You picked up a lot of speed on the backhalf. Nice!
