We just got 24-28 inches of snow in my area in IL. First weekend in April the track will be opening depending on weather. I will have some slips as soon as they open!

My car is all apart right now. I'm hoping to sell the motor before I go out to sea so I can get this twin setup going

I am one of those dreamers.

I work two jobs and have started having homes rehabbed to resale.

The harder I work it seems the farther away my dreams get.

This weather is too wicked.

First off, a big thank you to Santos (Silver Bullet C6) for allowing me to build him a nice setup and push it really hard.

I told him this is "The Little Blower That Could."

FYI: We realize there is always someone quicker/faster than you.

We think we got the CorvetteForum 1/4 & 1/8 Mile Record for Stock Internals LS3 with A6 and Power Adder.

-------------------------
Best Time on 1/22/2011
1.46 60ft
6.26@110mph
9.75@139mph
Track DA was 222 ft.


-------------------------
2008 Corvette A6
Stock LS3 shortblock
Stock heads
-----------------
A&A Si Trim S/C 6-rib with Flip Drive(no belt slip)
A&A Inline Fuel System
FIC Custom 90# Shortys
RR Ultra-Grip 3.00" Pulley
13# Boost
220/220 Cam
Kooks 1 3/4" Headers, 3" offroad X-pipe, Corsa Sports
Alky Control Dual nozzle Meth Injection: M3 Pre-blower, M15 Pre-T/B
RPM Built 3.42 Diff
Century Built A6
Yank 3200 Stall
Custom 18x11 Rear Rims 305/35/18 MT Drag Radials
GTO Front Skinnies w/ M&H Tires
Pfadt Inverted Sport Shocks (Adjusted for drag racing)
RMS 2 BAR SD Tuned
----------------

First run off the street it ran a 10.13@135

Then got faster every run as we dialed in the suspension and tune.
We ran 7 of 10 runs in the 9's. It was really consistent. Very quick and fun to drive.









--------------------------
2 nice photos from the pro-camera person at the track.





---------------------------






And of course the only proof we like to see. VIDEO!

I went and saw the Top Fuel guys "testing" yesterday. It wasn't what I thought. I thought that there were just a couple of teams here. I was wrong. They are ALL here. It was freaking awesome. Best pass was a 3.77 @ 320+ MPH. Bunch of 3 second and over 300 MPH passes. Best part was that it was 20 min from home and you're no more than 30 feet from the starting line without ridiculous crowds. AWESOME.

Me and a friend did the same thing a few years ago at Houston the Monday after the races. They were doing testing before they went to their next race. We drove in the gate and went sat on the wall by the burnout box and watched, it was awesome

The tracks here generally have pretty crappy prep to begin with, throw in the cold weather and nothing hooks. Hopefully get out there in the next month or so though when it warms up to make my single pass before I get the boot again.

We should be out there with LS2Formula and BonnarLS1's cars tomorrow. There should be plenty of rubber on the track leftover from the Top Fuelers.

I have a few adjustments to make now since I got booted after running 10.2-10.3 a few weeks ago. I am in the hunt for some 9's before I do a blower swap though.

Agreed. It's all a giant conspiracy to see who is fastest.

You must be looking at the wrong tracks. Houston Raceway and Hennessey's track may suck all year.. but Houston Motorsports Park is just fine...

I hope you bust 9's in the *** Ricky. But if you don't before you burn that bitch to the ******* ground I might want some parts off of it first. Wish you the best of luck.

Our track is still closed, but we've got a few guys getting ready for tx2k11... TRMIN8R just made 994rwhp on his new setup and 505OUTLAWZWS6 just made like 808rwhp (I think) on a stock bottom end (minus rod bolts) on e85 and a PT88...
