Default Lsx shootout with our 5.3 camaro and arh's fastest 5th gen camaro

So every year we make the 14 hour trip to Indy for the LSX shootout! This year we went focused to win lol We trailered Camaro383's car with the junkyard 5.3 and PT88 ( I've posted videos of the car on here getting down on the street) and every year we leave with American Racing Headers who take their race car fifth gen Camaro( fastest in the world btw)..So we had an amazing time and won the true street event with the red camaro by slowing it down to win the 10.00 class with an average of 10.01! and ARH won the fastest fifth gen heads up shootout agaisnt Lingenfelter! talk about some exciting races!

The fastest pass out of the red Camaro was a 9.47@143 on 15psi and having some trans issues but we were happy with that considering the issues and only running 15psi lol

ARH took the record back from Lingenfelter going 8.72@157!

All and all I had a great time! It was different being just the pit crew for a change lol but thats what bestfriends do! I cant wait to go back next year!!

Pics and videos i took during the event:

on the way


Pit stop at RPM Transmission( most amazing shop i've ever be to)











all of us in the winners circle when the event finished which was at 5:30AM!!

I know there are atleast 2 cars that want to race it as soon as the trans is gone through so there might be a few vids in a couple of weeks . If not ill put them down for for him.

Thanks man im all good but it was nuts the car went up when i was racing that super charged ron fellows vette.
Currently Matt ( camaro383 ) is building my new car its a 2002 z28 in my avatar.
It is a 5.3 with a pt7675 turbo. Hopefully It will be done in the next couple weeks. It will make less power than my old car but is alot lighter. So should keep me in the mix.
