Default Another pb for the tt v6 firebird

Took her to the track yesterday to get some more runs in the car. I still need to start launching harder but I'm still trying to get use to it. first run

RT .463
60ft 1.383
330 3.907
1/8 6.003
MPH 117.64
1000 7.820
1/4 9.380@143.46

2nd run got real loose around the 1000 ft or so and had to brake

RT .479
60ft 1.363
330 3.894
1/8 5.992
mph 117.70
1000 7.923
1/4 9.659@126.74

3rd

RT 1.090 oops
60ft 1.346
330 3.841
1/8 5.933
mph 118.35
1000 7.738
1/4 9.284@144.77

4th

RT 2.187 double oops
60ft 1.347
330 3.839
1/8 5.915
mph 119.08
1000 7.710
1/4 9.252@145.02

All in all it was a pretty good day. I'll get some vids posted up some. I'm gonna try and get to the track again this week and start turning it up more and launch it a bit harder.

Whoa... that's hauling for a V6. Congrats to you.

Can I be so bold as to ask what you've done to the V6 & also is it a 3.8L?

Yes it is the 3800 that comes in them. It is twin turbo. I'll have vids up tomorrow.

Dude that is the coolest thing i have seen since the first GMC Syclone i raced in my LT1 95 z-28. Yeah you know how that went. Of course that was before i spent more money than i could pay back in 5 years trying to make that damn Camaro beat that little truck. Eventually i got it there, and yes it was all over foolish pride.

Thanx, I went 2 weeks ago for my license runs and ran a 9.23. Now that I got my license I'm gonna turn it up. I had to change my gearing this week and put in 160 injectors since my gears and injectors were maxed.
