I'm not even sure what the DA was on Sunday....all the cars are bolt on only stock internal setups. My car and my buddy's red camaro are both tuned by me. The Camaro was traping 110 with a stock stall and my personal best mph was 115 bogging the car the run before i broke.

Why didn't they get any times in the vid? Kind of like a dyno video without numbers at the end...pointless.

All the cars MPH 108+ I think that should be sufficent information for you...I mean I've seen plenty of vague dyno videos....

I'm not defending crappy dyno videos. Quite the opposite. I'm just wondering why bother with a track vid that shows no numbers? You told us how they did after you were asked, so it's not a secrecy thing. It appears to be just a bad video. Just curious.

Well thats one vote for a bad video...Personally I just don't like to post my times. I guess thats why some people pay extra to run N/T at the track.....

DA was -474 at 1:00 pm I ran a 12.53@108.87 which corrected work out to be
12.57 @108.57.
Great day to run it was like a rental day.
I saw a couple of you F-body guys there, I had the silver Z28 hanging out with my Brother in the Black GTO.
I wish you guys had video of my car, but not the run when I roasted the tires and ran a 13, Ha. Next time the wife is going and getting some vid's and pics.
