Default New PB for the Impala SS

Like the title says , got my new personal best considering the warm humid weather. Ran it three times which were very consistent times.

1st run 13.56@ 102 MPH

2.06 60'

2nd run 13.52@ 102 MPH

2.02 60'

3rd run 13.58 @ 101 MPH

2.08 60'

Here is a vid on my 3rd run.

The wheels are some gtp 16 X 6.5 and tires are 255/50/16 BF Drag radials. On the back springs I put some spring blockers.

Ebay intake,3 inch catless downpipe, flowmaster 40 series exhaust. And tuned by Vince at trifecta tuning. I went 14.1 at 101.7 with a 2.64 60 ft. Walking off the line....but I have a complete ls1 swap coming from 1cleanaupersport on its way then its back to the track. And that was on hard as a rock pirrelli pzero tires and stock rims, on a 95 degree night in Baltimore. So another word everything was working against me. And I only got one run in before the tree broke at the track.

The guy at the track I ran, ran a 14.09 at 102.7 on a 2.4 60 ft. And I thought thay was my slip. We ran almost the same time. I didnt realize until a few days later my time was the slower time because our track numbers were consecutive....I felt like a dummy lol.
