my best time cam only was 11.7 at 118mph.

That setup was full weight, 17x9s up front, LG G2 springs with Bilstein shocks, stock wheels on back with 26x10.50 16 ET Streets, LG torque arm, LG panhard bar. 60' on that pass was 1.58. I had the 12 bolt in the car with 4.30 gears. I did fry the stock clutch after that pass.

**** after I started to spray it, I never ran it all out on motor. I would use the on motor to see how the track conditions were and get a fell on how I needed to tweek the suspension. I never had the urge to do a hard launch on motor at the track when i could just use the bottle and go a lot faster.

I see your point.... But I like different $hit though. Somebody sure has a lot of time and hard work into it. So to each there own.

After Reading some of these intense messages about racing, I wonder who would be up for a Little LT1 action next year. James you know how Ryans Camaro runs. You two are in the same ball park, so it should be pretty fun. I just need to get me tranny built before I can come out and get embarresed by everyone. Like those two white TA's that put me to shame or even that 403 Stroker camaro that out ran me spinning the whole time . . . man that guys fast lol
