First run 11.26 @ 125 1.87 60 foot (no changes to tune or boost, soft launch)

2nd run 11.05 @ 125.22mph 1.73 60 foot (no changes to tune or boost, launched harder)

3rd run 11.01 @ 126.69 1.75 60 foot (added 1 degree of timing, same boost)

Tried a couple more runs, but track conditions were starting to go down a bit at the line and getting a little slip. Ran a couple more 11.0's. So I couldn't build boost good at the line and leave hard. There is still quite a bit more in this car. I really believe that good track conditions and a 1.6 or so 60 foot will put me in the 10.70's.

So close! A hundreth of a second!



Here's in car video of the 11.05 run:

Someone might have some video of the car going down the track, I'll post it when they send it to me.

Well, according to dragtimes it was in the negatives.

A little better track prep and we're good to see a 10 sec LS4.

If someone else had a video of your car everyone would see a gray G8 getting all 4 of her doors blown off by a Monte!

Nice car man!!

Pretty tame and normal on the street like factory, until you press the throttle a bit more than normal.

I know it sounded like a dumb question. I tried to get one from AZ and they told me only the red top is available to order and that a yellow top is not even made for the SS. Thanks for the info.
