I'd rather see mustangs/lightnings to play with than seeing buzzing ricer imports. You should register ASAP board. We need more LS1 fbody over there.

Damn I need to get in here more often. I missed out on getting to meet some LR guys. I might....might be going to Polk Performance on Saturday with another fella from Conway with a turbo SS. If I can get off work I thought about trying to get a small dyno day. I'll give more details soon.

is that a shitty tree out in certerville or am i just a rook. my best reaction time was .6 they kept switching back and forth between the pro tree and the slow tree, it was trowing me off. it's like the clock starts around three quarters of a second before the green. i went one run before the last yellow and only red lighted by .05 i just couldn't get the timing down. my best was an 11.37 @ 95mph with a .79 reaction time and a 2.0 60ft. so i look at it like the car ran a 10.58.

I think you may be slightly confused on how that works. The reaction time has nothing to do with the E.T or mph. You could have sat there and waited 2 seconds after the green light flashed and you still would have ran a 11.37 @ 95 because the timer doesn't start until your car trips it. If I am understanding what you meant wrong then I apologize.

What mods do you have to your car? And I would like to see some other guys times and what mods you guys have as well.

We've actually talked before, not sure if you remembered. I'm the guy who has TDs on Pewter Z at the shoppette and I think you were driving a white Escalade at the time.

A perfect light at Centerville is a .500. At least that is what it has been for the 3 years i have went but I have not gone since April.

I am sure that is how it works. And 98z28ls1 is correct also that on the slow tree .500 is the perfect reaction time. Reaction time is more of a big deal in bracket racing though.

For a bone stock car 11.3 is not too shabby...that should equate to about a 13.3-13.4 quarter mile time. Definitely not bad for your first time racing. Alot of M6 drivers definitely need a driver mod I've seen some at Prescott run 11.9-12.2 in the 1000'.

Yea prescott is 1000'.

There are not alot of LS1's that run down here at prescott, I want to come up there to Centerville sometime to see if there are any cars I would be interested in seeing there.

Next time you guys decide to get together at Centerville post up in here.

I just installed headers on my car so I could not make it on the 8th. I will be there on the 15th. My best time w/o headers is 10.82 @ 97mph.
