Default first pass in the camaro

Decided to make some passes with the camaro before i tear it down for the th350 swap. Drove the car 30mins. to the track teched in and made a pass. The rain started coming down pretty good so I left with only one pass under my belt. Conserdering that this pass was with 0 cool down and some no good 275/60/15 Grand Prix tires I am very please with it and i feel like with the th350 and trans brake and some good drag radials that the car will run in the 11.9x range plus the weight reduction I will be doing in the up and coming weeks. One question before I put the times up I was under the impression that the car had a custom cam in it....well its not but it is a cc306 and was wondering were every body shifts there cars at. I shifted at 6000 on this pass and really did have a chance to play with shift points much. Thanks for the input.

60'-2.15
330'-5.67
1/8-8.55
1/8 mph-86.81
1000'-10.99
1/4-13.04
1/4 mph-110.35

I say you're short shifting it by atleast 500rpm. That CC306 cam is pretty big and needs some rpm to work properly. I say 12.0's on foot brake and high 11's on the trans brake. Good luck.
