No way that car is that fast with what you have listed. Honestly I look this car over everytime I get the chance. I have even helped him a time or two. I'm always looking for something he's not telling me. If it's there, I don't see it. Well done Doug. And, I know what's coming, that freakin thing is only going to get faster.

sir you in fact have broken the bolt on LS6 record as far as trap. And not by a little, 5mph! are you sure you don't have a secret kit on the car? lol Not calling you out man, just nothing makes sense or adds up here. Your time slip doesn't really make sense, nor does your trap with the mods your car has.
I agree the time slip don't make sense and yes I obliterated the bolt-on ls6 mph record. It was 126.3. I have been 126.5 at MIR on a damp night, 126.8 at Mason dixon a couple weeks ago, I also had a 129.1 that same day on a run it spun pretty bad. I thought that was a fluke. But it's probally not a fluke when it happens 9 times.

I'm curious how you are making 426rwhp with bolt ons as well as trapping 130mph. Seem like a really good cam only number. Hate to say it, i'm not normally quick to call people out but that an awfully high trap number...

I don't care about the hp numbers really but that trap number and time would be impressive even with cam only. I don't see it, even if this car is all motor ls6 could have a tiny cam and ported heads i don't even see 130mph with that. Something doesn't add up here. Even at a 3000-3100lb raceweight. I'd like to see it run, sounds interesting. If you got that 60 down you'd be well into the 10s.

Yes Stevo, 3000 minus driver. It's a bolt-on ls6 that makes 426rwhp. It's not uncommon for a bolt-on ls6 to go over 400rwhp. Most people change a cam at that point as where I have continued to tune on my ls6. I've done some aero mods that should help trap speed out also......But I will admit, this is trap speed is getting ridiclous. I would like to get some et out of it but just can't seem to do that.
I also have rotating weight down to a minimum....which can really drive trap speed up. I still don't have drag brakes, nor do I want them. I do have lightened OE style brakes.

nope....nice pic 
My friend was there with his new 2012 Camaro. His traps was the same in both lanes. I basically ran the left lane. It hooked better for me in that lane and the line was shorter.

33mph. I trapped about the same as you in the 1/8 with similar raceweight prob a tad less hp. Not quite as much gear. More rotating mass...some. I doubt aero is really coming into play at these speeds on a 1/4. I picked up 25mph...your picking up 33mph. Something is off here with the car or the track. I take you are crossing right at the top of 4th 6500rpm or so?

The H/C LS1 record traps 134......with a 2800lb racecar with driver. Not sure how they only have 4mph more than you with a MUCH bigger cam, MUCH better heads and a lighter car. Nothing here makes sense, my guess is the track mph is off which is more common than a LS6 bolt on car trapping 130 lol.

I would agree the trapps could be off except my friend with a 2012 Camaro trapped the same in both lanes. Does this mean the trapps were off in the 1/8 also...because usually I run 99-100+ in the 1/8 and that day was 97 with a couple of 99's. What about the drag car that trapped 125 that got out on me but I was pulling on at the end?
Like I said I thought the 129.1 it ran the other week was a fluke since it only done it once....but after nine passes in the 129-130.xx range it pretty much had to of done it.
Stevo my rpm is probally near 6800. I don't really know because my tach stops moving at 6400.

The mod list is accurate. If anything the traps could be off. But why would the be off for my car and not the 12 Camaro of Phills? What triggers the traps? Does anyone know how the lights/trapps work? Could something hanging or to low on my car make them read wrong?
