Default Finally got to the track

Weather was good but the track was slippery as hell. They actually ended up shutting it down for safety reasons for the rest of the weekend. Got a couple of reasonable passes in though

I don't know the weight. It's lighter than stock but not gutted. Has full stock interior and AC and what not. My street car

Dyno tuned it the day before the track on a superflo. It made 630 rwhp NA

That new engine really makes some steam.

From mid 11's to mid 10's on the first runs.

With a sub 1.50 60ft your knocking on 9's.

Congrats

That’s what we were thinking when we talked about and started gathering parts for the setup. It’s crazy that your car runs the way it does at the weight it’s at man. I’m hoping for 135 in the Camaro that weighs just over 3k with me in it and with factory interior and my heat lol. 6 speed car also. Got a little less cubes than you though. Only got 377 lol
