Default Blown07GT (91 Trans Am) vs Ju1ce (98 regal GS)

Lined the cars up for a few runs over the weekend after my brother got some 4.10's put in his car to see how it did. On the way down we ran into an 04-05 STI. Kid in the STI counted it off and we went. No idea on mods or anything but I'm sure it was bolt on/tuned at least and looked lowered as well.

We also ran Ju1ce's 98 regal GS. Went from around a 60mph roll and ended somewhere around 140 mph.....my brother had to go into 5th with the new 4.10's lol. Regal was running strong!

The supercharger should have gave that away! No woman needs the excess torque!

On a side note, he was pretty surprised when we switched cars for a week, up until then he thought his 08 Impala SS was faster. He was even more surprised when I ran him from a light the day we switched back.

Mods on the TA are..

-9.0:1 350 ZZ4 bottom end
-trick flow 23 degree heads
-Comp XR288 cam
-Vic jr. manifold
-holley 750 vacuum sec carb
-longtubes
-T56
-4.10's

The motor at one point put down 374 RWHP but I don't think it would currently. It has a cat in for emmisions and the carb was a little rich. We had a little "incident" on the 2nd run with the regal....maybe my brother will chime in to tell about it. If I had to guess I'd say the car traps around 108 mph or so how it was for the runs.

I was just looking at the datalogger information in the race we had... my intake manifold temps were off the scale near the end of that 1st race lol... good thing I had some additive in there or I probably would've smoked the motor!

No more racing to 140mph hahaha

Yes...involving white smoke out the tail pipes In simple terms, the motor is coming apart for a "freshening up" and will be off the road for a little while.

Haha...dude, it was so damn close that it took till 140 for anyone to start pulling. Imagine that though, both of our cars exploding at the same time

Here's the view from our car...

SRZ's G8GT
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMajk6qdBfA

We had other runs/videos... but the editing of faces would have taken me hours lol...
IDK why the video jumps but the sound doesn't... I had a hell of a time with the blurring feature on Final Cut... I'm all set trying to fix it lol

We ran twice from a first gear roll... my tires weren't having it and SRZ beat up on me. We'll have to run again (150th rematch) when the roads get warmer, lol.
