First time we went was a very humid day at Maple Grove with rain that broke up the runs and the trans wasn't shifting correctly.
The second time was better air at Atco and the trans problem fixed, but to this day it is STILL UNTUNED. Not to mention he has nowhere near enough gear in the car as it sits. He's at 11.1 @ 122 right now with a 1.57 60'. I'm pulling for mid 10s at around 130 all said and done, but he likes to be conservative in guesstimating

Joe (RamAir95TA) is a good friend of mine and has only been to the track twice.

. I knew he fixed something and got it to run alot better.
Either way his car is bad ***, and was wondering more about the Impy than the TA.
I wanna Know why the Impy runs so good at the track. We Know the motor makes good power, but that cars gotta be set the **** up.

I think this is exactly what most people miss. Straight from AI's OP message.
"It is an excellent example of what this setup will typically do when properly setup and tuned."
Ive read too many people who have build stroker engines making less than 425hp you can kind of get the idea why.

I thought he had the tune touched up to fix the trans . I knew he fixed something and got it to run alot better.

The car is under-geared too - 3.90s just aren't cutting it right now for N/A use (if I decide to spray I might keep them though).
Also, my car is a hydraulic roller and, for the most part, only on a moderate diet (!AC, !swaybar, !front bumper support, !rear seats).

My car only has a mail-order tune and is running very rich via wideband. I solved the shifting issues but undoubtedly the tune is holding the car back a few tenths.

I was just wondering why the impala runs so good and dynoed so well.
I think I got it figured out.

Haha, so you guys like my friend Pat, the Bolt-on terror, now the Heads Cam terror?
I traded top spot with Pat in the Bolt-ons class for a couple years and he always came prepared. It seemed like each time I'd swear I'd beat him, but he'd come with some new mod or trick up his sleeve and eak out the win. Of course it also didn't help when I screwed things up with some last minute change to try and one up him.
I was also the previous record holder in the heads cam class, which he apparently obliterated. I find that kinda funny actually, because in a way he beat our combined record. The day I set the record at 11.55 @ 118, he jumped in and ran 11.45 @ 119.47. Yo Pat, you beat yourself!
If there is one thing I've learned about Pat, he doesn't do anything half assed and he always comes prepared. Anyone would be very lucky to have Pat representing their product.

Ya its a sick car and seem hes got the total package dialed!! Yours sound like it is too!! Congrats to both of you guys!
PS I know exactly what you mean about making last second bad decisions in hopes to gain alittle something. I jipped myself out a 1st place trophy at the LTxshootout last year that way.
