Default SAM's 99 Camaro SS went 8.75 @ 153 All-Motor yesterday

Here is the link to the vid on Youtube to save my buddies bandwith....

427" C5r with a 4 Speed Jericho. Runs a 28.50 x 10.5 on factory styled suspension.


Thank you BMR and all of the students at the school to get this thing running the way it is.


Hope you all enjoy.

Yeah, the gears are just a tad bit too tall. Going to drop them down a little bit and see if there is a mph or two left. I firmly believe that this car will do a high 8.6X before the end of this year.

thanks for the kind words. When some more things head up your way, I can help you get an LS1 together.

Also, here is another view of the pass.

Congrats to you guys, if all the stars align I may end up moving down there in a few years if I get lucky and SAM would be hard to pass up.

Taking an advanced chassis building course up here pretty soon, going to try and start next semester.
