Default 10.0 on 17's video

Here is a video that was taken by Eric Vogel at the last real street drags at Great Lakes Dragaway.

Runs were made on 275 40 17 MT et street radials.

17's up front too, both fuel tanks full, SLP 20TL exhaust, approx 3,850lb raceweight. Also the car has a spohn torque arm, 1LE LCA's, and the same swaybars, bilstein shocks and slp springs that were put on the car when it was built in 96'

http://media.putfile.com/INTMD8-turbo-camaro-100-on-17s

The turbo mustang in the other lane was about a car length ahead of me when it hit something on the track and started sliding. I'm glad he saved it otherwise it would have been bad for both of us.

The run in the video reads like this-

60ft 1.677
1/8 6.552
1/8mph 113.55
1/4 10.021
1/4mph 143.83

Fwiw the best run on these tires which I have no video for was-

60ft 1.547
1/8 6.408
1/8mph 113.62
1/4 9.873
1/4mph 146.38

I run the tires at 20psi, do a short burnout and slip out the clutch at 5k+ rpm. (no 2-step)

Jim,

that mustang is a buddy's of mine from milwaukee area. 9.50 car

it pushed a headgasket at the top end. he was a little shakey after that, and more worried about YOUR car then his and how close he came to ya.
