My car is pretty fast but... ....But not compared to a lot of cars I see on here. How come I never encounter any of you maniacs on the road? Maybe I'll see some of y'all in June at NED's Camaro/Firebird Shootout.
....By then I'll have a new clutch, a 9" rear, some tires, a line lock, maybe a shot of nitrous, and maybe a clue as to how to drive the little beast.

I would have hit 11's if I hadn't smoked my Spec 3 on that 12.2 run. The Qa1's were set too firm and I got some wheel hop and had to get out of it. 
Not sure what's up with the AFR's Slowhawk wants me to swap cams out too. They keep picking on my little 224. 
I need a rear end too.

I'm pretty happy with mine. Sometimes I think if I were to do it again I might try to make a little more torque down low, but I guess I can change that perception with some gears.
My car needs attention to the drive train.The last time I was up there I tried to launch hard and the car barely moved
. The clutch just slipped!
