Heymoej,too bad you were not at the last Chaos.There were a lot of 8-9 second cars there.The track was the best i have ever seen it.It was right on par with RT66 when they are having a national event.Chris car stood the front end up a good 18-20 inches,and i walked off his wheelstand to 35 ft. Artactiongraphics has all the pics from the day,it did not get his car at its peak hight.A hair before and after.

I cant complain tho 11.2 on a 128k shortblock at 3700 lbs is not to bad. maybe next year ill get ambiitious and pull some seats and any thing else and see what it will do. Shoot me an email next time your going out maybe ill try and get out.

You think that cardboard and tape on the front will help you win a car show?

Bolt ons shouldn't be allowed on the cam only list.

Because that is what is generaly agreed and understood amongst LS community, Cam only is cam, matching springs, pushrods and new timing chain if necessary + tune + any other external bolt on.
Bottom line stock shortblock, stock gasket and unmolested heads.

Because cam only doesn't mean "only a cam" it means stock cubes, stock heads, and naturally aspirated. If you wanted to argue this then you should have started about 10 years ago when the "cam only" term was coined. Hate the game not the playa..


Edit: The official list states it as such, "All times must be on stock heads, crank, rods and pistons." and since we are racers, we all go by the fact that if its not explicitly stated, its legal, thus all bolt-ons and drivetrain upgrades are allowed. If your not doing what they say not to do then your within the parameters. The end.
