Default TR TRak Cam?

I'm looking at getting the TR Cam Swap Package w/ Dual Valve Springs....I'm pretty sure I've got my mind set on the TRak cam (231/234 .640/.590 112 LSA). Just wanted to know if there was anyone on here running that cam on stock 241's, and M6? My car has gears so I wont need a lot of really low end power but I don't want something TO big to have no power under the curve.

Yes I already Searched "TRak" and "TRak Cam" really didn't find THAT much so any info would be great

Like said above very close to the TSP TV3 which I have and love it. I run 3.73s and it works great but if I was not going to spray I would run 3.90s or higher.

Why would you go custom then if that's a nice cam?

You'll love the cam I had that cam in my old T/A it pulled freakin hard even with stock gears all the way to 7200rpm too bad I never dynoed it.
But Pat G made 489rwhp with AFR 205 and Ported 90/90 FAST.

Here is some vids of my car

Cold start with stock Heads and Borla

Bringing this back from the dead, but, at least is shows I know how to use the search button.

Venom, in the first video, was that tuned or untuned. The lope on that thing sounds bad ***.

What did you have the idle set at? That cam sounds so much better than videos I've heard of the Torquer V3 and that cam is ground on a 111 LSA. How were the street manners and would you recommend this cam for a weekend warrior car that will see minimal track time? I guess what I'm asking is how was the low end grunt?
