Default No Traction Turbo LS1

Tried to put it on kill to end the year, guess I found the limit of my suspension / slicks. 40 degree track temp and 720 rwhp with a 6 speed don't work so well!

Here is a new angle on the GoPro I was trying

Dammit boy. Track wasn't ready to hold any power that night
I take it. Would have been a scary ride if you didn't let off.

The track definitely wasn't there that night, 40 degrees out and all street tire cars ruined the prep. I will have to find the slip when I get back to my place. I remember 90-92 mph in the 1/8th, think 14 something in the 1/4. It was the last night of the year and I was really hoping to set a new best since my last pass I left a ton on the table, didn't realize I only had 3-5 degrees of timing going down the track. I got kicked off but I can't complain because it went 10.64 @ 133 on 5 degrees of timing lol!

60' - 1.915 blahhh!
330 - 5.34
1/8 - 8.28
mph - 90.73
1/4 - 13.60
mph - 74.55
