Default New CTS-V 1/4 mile record, also done with stock motor/trans

First pass off the highway showed us the car was going to run well. We went 9.88, first time EVER turning the nitrous on. Keep in mind this car is in the exact same trim as it was for the 10.3x passes but we've turned on the spray, which is only 100 shot. Tune up was not aggressive at all. I fully expect to go 9.50's@143+ with a stock motor.

We ended up going 9.76@141 then backed it up with 9.77@140. This was with a pretty bad track and 30+ mph head wind. So she's got plenty left, either way though the car is working very well for what it is. Still FULL WEIGHT + some


Also drove to the track and drove home, street radials, no slicks, blah blah blah.


Some randoms from the track




Not a bad outing for our first time on spray!

Big thanks to my buddy Ryan@Prosource Autosports for helping me out and putting the car together. Sam as well, he's got the tune up nailed on this thing.

As well as that a big thanks go out to Nitrous Outlet, Presence Distribution, Dallas Performance, My tuner Sam Miller, builder ProSource and I'm sure I'm missing a few.

Be on the look out, when good air comes in we plan on doing much better then this if we can find a track to hold the nitrous faster. There is some go pro footage that I will post up later tonight or tomorrow

We have already made more power then we have on this passes, so get ready for all this big bad records to get smashed by a little stock motor car....

Sick times, sick car. Especially the list of cars you have listed, definitely a hell of a garage you must have.

Off topic, but post garage pics!
