Default Hello from oklahoma

Out here in Tulsa OK. Just wanted to say hello. Ive been visiting for awhile and just joined. Im 21 years old, I like goin cruising on the weekend and making passes at the strip when its open in my ss. I think im addicted to it, the strip i mean. I drive a 2001 Black ss camaro A4. Ive had it for alittle over a year and use it as my fun car/weekend car. It has headers/y-pipe borla catback, slp lid, maf, K&N, strut tower brace, QA1 shocks, sbc, Drag radials, 150 shot of nitrous NX(wetkit) 3200 stall, moser 9" with 3.89 gears and I believe thats about it. Im not sure what it dynos on the gas but on motor its 316rwhp and 341rwtq. Best time on motor so far is 12.55 at 107.90mph and on the juice I went 11.58 at 118.96mph. I'll be looking here pretty shortly to buy a H/C package dont what specs yet, get it retuned, finish my suspenion mods beef up my tranny and see if I can get her in the 10's. Over the winter ive saved up alittle and now its time to see how far 6k will get me. Again hello everyone.

Welcome man. I work in Tulsa but live out in Skiatook. We have a local board too if your not already a member. It's in my sig. so come on over there & say hello.

With a auto $6k will get you in the 10's fairly easy. Especially with your current mods. If your running 11.5 on the juice right now a small H/C package like mine would get you there w/juice. But your gonna need a new stall.
