Default We won the local car show burnout Contest

This year we entered my Son's 1974 454 powered Camaro into the 2010 Crusin" Sherwood Burnout Contest.

Last year we entered my 2008 FWD LS4 V8 powered Grand Prix GXP. We would of won last year but when the announcer called out to the crowd to vote he called my car a silver Firebird. There was a silver Firebird that ran but it didn't make it to the finals.

I may put my 383 stroker powered 1999 Suburban in next year if i can find some junk tires.

The 2001 Firebird belongs to one of my other sons. My son that owns the 74 Camaro also owns a black 2000 Camaro SS that runs 13.1 in the 1/4. It's stock except for the Corvette wheels & the CAI that didn't help so he has the factory one back in.

I love that year f-body.

I couldn't help notice you said the upgraded airbox didn't make a difference. Most likely either it was a crappy brand or the lack of tuning after installing the airbox.

You should always retune after installing an airbox to take advantage of the extra airflow.
