Went out to Speedworld Saturday night. They were hosting Arizona's Fastest Street Cars and doing the normal Saturday night drags. It was cool seeing the fast cars running.

I got to make 6 passes.

13.257 at 106.23, my best of the night. My 60fts were all 2.0s with one 2.1. I probably could have tried to pull out a faster run but I called it a night. It was a real surprise, I guess the air got cold enough to make a good run. I only have headers, lid and free ram air.

From what I saw, I was one of the fastest LSX cars out there that wasn't running in the competition. I wish the other Cameros, Firebirds and GTOs were running better than they were. But I had some fun and thats all that matters.

 

Congrats on the runs. Looks like a great bracket racing car.

Coach

 

hahaha, hey man I was out that night!

Had the black z/28 running 14.0 @ 108......with a 2.39 60' with traction control on

yeah 4.10's are a bitch

As soon as I got a helmet i made full passes, but the track tempts fell and I started having traction probs even in 3rd.

Need tires and suspension.

 

I remember that run. I lined up with you thinking sweet an interesting race. Then you fell back further and further and I was wondering wtf happened.

I thought they had the track prepped fairly decently. But I saw the GTOs having lots of traction issues off the line. One of my back tires is at the wear bar and the other is like 50%. I guess it was enough to hook up. I was ready to start feathering the throttle but it stuck so I just got a little more aggressive as the night went on.

 

Get a tune, it was worth .3 and 3 mph for me in the 1/4 mile....congrats.

 

Yeah I agree, track prep was pretty good. It was my first time to Speedworld and it seemed alot better than Firebird which I have only been to once as well.

I raced you in the beginning of the night when I didn't have a helmet, so I was letting off around the 1000'. I was just happy to be there and didn't want to get kicked off.

I am going again this wednesday night (tomorrow night). This time with a helmet and I hope to race around 6pm when the track temps are good. I am also gonna have a full tank of gas. Should run in the 13's but still probably not that good. My old GS-D3's dont hold worth crap. Can't wait to get some DR's.

 

I think I may head out there too. I just put on some new tires in the back and this will be a good excuse to break them in.

 

Think I may have to cruise out there and meet up with you guys....seeming as I live 10 mins away....... I went last friday but air was pure crap and car was running .3-.5 slower than before. Maybe we can get some good passes in if it doesn't rain! I am just afraid it's gonna rain tonight and be nasty as hell tomorrow

and LS1TORQ I pulled off one of those nice 2.4 60' myself friday night....talk about feeling bad and slow.....that'll do it

 

cool, I'll see you guys there. What time does tech open? I wanna be racing by 6pm.

btw the weather "should" be good!

 

I don't get off work until 6, so I won't get there very early.

 

Nice meeting you guys...I had a blast but car was running slow...too damn hot outside. wish it was winter again.

 

was anyone there last night? i saw quite a few ls1 cars... a sliver camaro with a black hockey stripe, a black Z28 ithink it was, a convertible SS, a few trans ams.. i was there on the red crotch rocket, making a fool of myself busting 13 flats

 

Ya it wasn't the greatest night for running. The best I could pull was a 13.5 at 103. Just wasn't cold enough. Oh well. At least the admission was half off and you got a free shirt out of it.

 

i thought the temp was decent... times did seem a little off for everyone.. im definitely regearing the bike asap, i bogged the **** out of it every run.

 

if 90 degrees decent....

damn I wanted to run that bike to, if you are the one I was thinking of I almost got to then you pulled behind the cones and waited for someone.

 

lol i was waiting for the damn sandbagger on the harley.. how can you run 14.5's all day long and bust a 13.2 on the next pass? its bullshit...

 

its great to see the arizona crowd representing! I was there at the wednesday night race also. A friend and I were practicing top end racing. I'm there almost every weekend so come by my pit and say Hi.

 

did you have a different hood (than in your avatar) on wednesday night?

 

i knew you would be on this site... i was the guy on the red crotch rocket.. i assume your going tomorrow? i might try to head over there..

edit: i think we might be a decent race if i could cut my 60' down to about 1.8.. i ran a 12.96 with a 2.15 60'.. youll probably still beat me tho

 

yeah the monster cowl that is painted the state color of alabama.......
