First run with the Camaro This was my first run with the Camaro. I kinda felt like it shoudl run better than this but I couldn't seem to get it down anymore. The car has Pace Setters,TD with X, and a lid. Street tires and an A4. I haven't had it tuned yet and I was wondering if that could help any???
I ran a 9.06 @ 82.1 --1/8 (Our 1/4 is shut down
)
60 Ft. was 2.11
I thought I would do at least an 8.9 but I dunno any thoughts?

Do you know what gears you have? If they are the 2.73's thats not good at all for an LS1 and drag racing.
Most cars like yours would do 8.5 or better. Maybe the DA was real high when you ran it.

It has the 3.23s in it. But I don't really know about the DA.I am not exactly sure how to calculate it... I do know I wasn't the only one that was running a little on the slow side... I was actually the thrid fastest car out there. there were two H/C gears and nitrous cars that were barely running 8.4-8.7 and a stroked LS2 GTO that was running 9.3 pretty consistelntly. I would say it was the track but I don't think I was spinning any so I am not sure.

It is in West Texas not that high of an elevation... It was pretty humid (which is really wierd) but I don't know the stats for the day. That was kind of what I was thinking on the times but I wasn't sure. There was a group of Ford Lightnings (some had pulleys on them) and the fastest was running 9.7ish. Maybe it was just a bad day to run? Everyone seemed to be hooking up pretty good (Even the GTO who launched in reverse 
) I am just looking for an excuse why my car ran so slow... Other than it just sucks.
