New best I got a new best this past weekend at Beech Bend Raceway(Bowling Green, KY). The Nitto's were not hooking so I borrowed some ET Streets on stock firebird rims. Here's the slip:
60'___1.68
330___5.02
1/8___7.80@88.58
1000__10.22
1/4___12.28@109.76
The DA was +444' I also ran 4 12.30-31's @109-110mph. I think this is about the limit of ET with the mods I have now. Any suggestions on how to get my 60's down and also what to add to get my mph up so I can get in the 11's? I want to stay SI bolt-on for now.
Here are my mods:
2000 Camaro SS A4
MODS:
Engine: No internal, ASP Pulley, NGK TR-6's
Computer: Diablo Predator
Induction: K&N, Direct-Flo Lid, smooth bellows, FTRA
Exhaust: 1 3/4" Jet-Hot LT's, 3" ORY-pipe, 3" Cut-out, 3" Borla cat-bak
Trans: TCI SSF 3500, B&M trans cooler
Suspension: ES poly trans mount, BMR LCA's w/ relocation brackets,DMS lowering springs,
Wheels & Tires: 35th Aniv. SS wheels, 17x9 w/275/40/17 Nitto 555's(front),17x11(widened) w/315/30/17 Nitto DR's(rear)
Weight: 3500(car only)
Any ideas and info helping me out would be greatly appreciated.

Re: New best As far as the 60' go, those are pretty good 60' for having those wide heavy stock wheels on the front. Remove the front sway bar if you haven't already, and some skinnys up front and some HAL's will knock 'em down even more.
get your car as close to 3400 lbs as you can and bring it to the Thunder Shootout for some good DA and a really great hooking track. If it is anything like last year you should have no problem seeing an 11 second timeslip

Re: New best Thanks guys I was thinking of buying some draglights. Do you think 3.73 gears will help the 60's? How bout adding a LS6 intake and ported TB? Will they help in mph? Will the draglights and weight reduction help the mph also? How much?
