I was crossing the scales at 2800-2805 all weekend. Rules allowed me to run at 2775 but didn't want to buy a light battery. I should have bought the battery, lost second round by.0027.

I am running a RPM transmissions lite weight turbo 400. I don't think anything in it is from GM. Picked up some ET from the lite weight T350 I had run for 2 years

Shane Stymist ran the combo this year in CPS for 3 races in Kevin Lumsdens 4th gen camaro. I think he got it down to around 10.19-20. With enough testing it would go probably low 9.40s in WCF trim maybe quicker. But gonna take a lot of testing.

so you have to gain 350 lbs or so to be in CPS trim? Maybe break the record? Car runs hard man

We work really hard in CPS to get the 60' low. Usually we are 1.31 to 1.36 depending on the weather and track prep.

I was 400 pounds lighter than the CPS legal weight. After the WCF I have a better idea what I need to do to catch the faster cars in CPS. It's just a matter of finding a way to do it.

hours of track time! If we had classes like that I’d do it in a heartbeat. You learn so
much more than just throwing power at it

The lite weight T400 is probably around 3/10 second quicker in a 1/4 mile pass.

What kind of rear you have in your c4? I have a c4 and have been wanting to turn it into a race car.

I'm running a Carrolls Rod and Racecraft bolt-in ford nine inch. It's a fab 9 type housing. You do have to cut out part of the rear floor for the extra inch or 2 of clearance. Rear also has Viking DA rear shocks.
