The rear sounds like a fire truck but it's still holding...for now.

The good air is back here on the east coast now and my mph has started to creep back into the 114s. I only need to work on shifting a bit better and hopefully I can put it all together for a 12.teen pass.

I really am tempted to try the et streets that I have on the other camaro. I've broken too many rears already and I really do want to get a 12.teen on the street tires before trying drag tires again. The weather here has gotten extremely cold recently and I suspect that they may close all the local tracks for the season. If not, I'd like to give it 1 more try before it's too late.

Smokin' 60'...

My best 60 is a 1.90 from which we managed a record (At that time) 8.31 in the 1/8th... on a day when the track and the driver were over-par... this is on a beefed up 2500-12" stalled 4L60E, being pushed by 20" steel rims and Falken Tires... which as far as I can tell are as hard as a rock. I've been abusing the hell out of those tires for MONTHS and they still look and feel brand new.

We're switching to MT Street Radials in a couple of weeks, so I think that will put us in the 1.7 60s and the high 7s ET, ALL MOTOR and mostly stock.
