Hey Chuck how was your car doing on 60 fts? I thought the track was pretty decent, though I and friends don't like to make a lot of hits after 9pm cuz we think dew kinda settles in.

I was there. I saw your 9.44 run, and chuck's lt1 camaro. Very nice rides both.

I haven't been here in a while since I only have my ls2 GTO now, which was the only one there running that night suprisingly, but I thought I'd look for the two ls1 GTO's I saw there.

Just wanted to say I love the formula, I wish I still had mine!

Do you guys know if the black lt1 'bird that was there is on here also?

The 1.56 was the best of the night and that was the last one. We seemed to hit the track a little better after dark.??? I noticed some of the tubbed cars blowing the tires off also. Had a couple of 1.60's earlier. Still trying to learn this thing but thay are getting a lot better. I had one run, against a Civic none the less, that blew the tires off like they were still in the water. You should see the vid of the rearend hitting the tires and then letting 'em go ran like a 2.5 60' and when I saw that litlle green car in front of me I almost died. Reeled him by about three seconds, thankfully...

Think I might go again next week...

I want to go again next week but might settle for the week after. I will turn it up to 25psi and try higher shiftpoints too.

How hard are you coming out of the hole on motor?

Been trying it anywhere from 4 to 6000. 5500 seems to hold the tire but bogs a little when they hit.

Yea I had to let her cool down after every run because of heat soak, but I got 6 of them in about 3.5 hours. Funny thing is my best run was the last one of the night when I ran her back to back w/o shutting down and cooling off. Being completely stock, other than a K&N Air Filter, not to mention having a fever I was happy to get down to a 13.5 considering how slow some of those C5's and C6's were running.
