Default LS swapped 3rd gen Camaro vert, first time out to the track

This was the first time I've taken my car to the track since I did the swap 3 years ago, and also the first time ever launching a stick car. I spun through 1st gear pretty bad but still managed a 1.8 60', and a 12.15 @ 116.

It's a cam-only (MS4) 6.0 with suspension, rear, T56, and longtubes.



same run with a few othet folks.

Not bad for a rookie. I think I can get it to 11.8x without any other mods if I can dead hook.

Nice...I love seeing unsuspecting verts go fast.
Some seat time and a sticky tire and I think deep in the 11's.
Congrats....what rear gear?

Deep 11's would be my goal before I upgrade from stock heads, intake, TB, and MAF.

Gears are 4.10's and its a custom 8.8 setup. Oh, and the car is a pig at 3,600 lbs too. Haha

Nice!! I may have seen your car around town before. Do you have a 10 bolt rear in it? What tires were you running?

Oh, just seen you have 8.8/4.10's.

No one said anything to you about a rollbar?
I was invited NOT to come back without one (verts need one @ 13.99)
Gotta love being told "your too fast".

Guess they were lenient last night. It helps that myself and my friends know some of the track crew.
