Don't know how to "add to the list"...
Tom Foolery---1996 Impala SS 10.86@124 1.55 60' LT1 4L60 3.42 17"radials 4600lbs. 400 shot
LT1
17" Radials all around
Stock interior
Full exhaust w/ cutouts
Full on Hotchkiss Road race suspension---- absolutely zero weight transfer
Not much of a burnout for an evening in the low 40's
3.42 gear--- (still too much as it shifts into OD at 1000').
Clean engine compartment--- no nitrous lines showing- dry kit.Solenoids in fender and plumbed under intake 400hp.
May be faster than this old vid shows??????
This is a very close friends' car and we miss him every day

chas010 said he took a few vids. He's talking about coming down to the shootout in Extreme Street N/A. You and him match up real well.

Thanks man! It ran 2 10.58's last year, but both were at 128mph's with 1.42 and 1.44? sixty foots. It's making some good power now, but I couldn't get it to hook. I tried 3 different air pressure settings but no luck. I have ZERO adjustability (outside of tire pressure) out back so I will have to do something about that. I'm thinking some AFCO coilovers ought to do the trick.

I don't see a lot of weight transfer on yours or your friends car from the vids I've seen. I run adjustable front and rears and the front end comes up quick run the rears stiff so the tires plant and go. I tried running the rears looser and the rear would squat come up and unload the tires about ten feet out.

I just ran a new best too. I still couldn't hook worth **** though. I have vids and slips. I ran 5 times, and 4 of them I was trapping 108.xx in the 1/8th but then it would lay down up top and go 130 to the 1/4.
Best run:
60-foot= 1.525
1/8th= 6.729 at 108.01
1/4= 10.501 at 130.37
Last year I was cutting 1.42's. I tried 4 different air pressures, 13, 12.5,12, 11.5 all spun. I need some suspension goodies out back

108 in the 1/8th is getting down Joel should be good for 132-133 mph in the 1/4.
Congrats.
