Default TRAck tODAY HERES WHAT IT RAN

Im bringing my wifes car to the track she is dying to run her car already. The run down is its a 226-234 cam with a 3600 stall and 3.73 gears. What do you think it will run? I will post a vid on here too after the runs.
With nitto drag radials

The car has more in it still, Its near full weight still with only the front and rear bumper supports removed. Tube k member up front and fully rear suspended. It does have kyb agx shocks. Also running on heavy *** 17*9 tts with 275s up front with 315s out back.
It also had between 9-11 gallons of gas in the car during these runs as well.

So next time out I will set the front shocks to 1 which is the softest and hopefully remember next time out.
ALso put on some bigs and littles on a slick and se what she does



2.04 60ft spun like ****
8.48 1/8
86.89 1/8 mph
12.98 @ 110.28

Next run was better, well a bit better

2.1 60ft
8.377
86.84
12.86 e.t
110.32 mph


3rd run I got her to burn out and stay out of the water and this one ran like hell But I cant believe I forgot to set the front shocks to 1, I have adjustable and never ever set them. So the car has more in it still. The next run will have the shocks set and I will have bigs and littles on there with a slick on it

1.76 60ft
7.88
87.33
12.35
110.33

and more in it. SHe was very happy with a smile from ear to ear and She beat a fully gutted LSx gto with NO interior, only 1 seat and no carpet. THe guy was pissed that he got beat by a female. We all laughed at him.

Any hp numbers? Tires?

My guess is a 13.2 on street tires, 12.6 on drag radials

If it's a cam only car with stall, gear and drag radials, and get it to hook--I'm predicting at least high 12's@106-107mph. Which track btw, GLD? Byron? Joliet 66?

Its still being built. I'm expecting mid 11s because of the topend. But there are plenty of cam only cars running low 12s with cams that size

Depending on the air, and other bolt-ons i'd say some solid low 12's. I'm assuming you have headers/exhaust, and CAI and whatnot. You have a good converter and hopefully some NT05r's.

Very close, My wife loved it and we had fun> I taught her how to burn out, staging she is still working on lol and it ran

Her burnout sucked and she was so far in the water pit that the water never completely rubbed off. But she will learn

Hey that's not bad at all, congrats to your wife. Looks like its got an 11 second slip in it with a better launch.

Any weight reduction? What all is done suspension wise?

I was so happy for her to get a good number out of it, but she didn't seem very thrilled cause she keeps goofing when staging. Oh well, practice makes perfect.

Can you post last run please or pm it to me. I'm gonna try and tear my nitrous apart tonight to find the issue

NICE!! I wish my fiancee liked my car haha she hates it because I spend all my "extra" time working on it busting my knuckles and getting pissed when I don't finish something haha.
