Default Drag raced a 2001 ZO6

My car was running pretty good last night at the track. Surprized a lot of people. Video and Time slip attached. I talked to the guy after and he said that he didn't go easy on me and he though he could real me in. My time was 13.86, his was 13.87. The track is at +3440 elevation remember. This was my first time using the Pro 5.0 shifter. I did a 3rd to 2nd shift twice at the track. I've never missed a shift before. That POS is coming out of there. Hope I didn't bend a push rod.

great video, if your pushrods are stock, I have some bad news for you............... I speak from experience, get a set of chromoly pushrods now, I think comp cam's have um for like 160, it wont take long at all to change them, probably only take you a couple hours if you havent done it before!

I'm going to get a dyno on Monday. That should tell me if I bent any push rods (I think). There is no ticking and I don't think I lost power. If I have some bent ones, I'm going to put stronger springs and a cam in it.

Nice run. But with those mods in your sig he shouldve handed you your ***.

Put some ET Streets on there you spun pretty bad.

I think your hand position is wrong if your going 3rd to 2nd. I did that once, and changed hand positions and haven't done it since.

I don't think I bent a pushrod, I dynoed at 327 RWHp today. The curve looks normal from what I've been told. I got lucky.
