Damn, I didn't make the video. But Claude and David did.

 

Ok, fine, I have shorty headers and a junk cold air intake. No nitrous though.

 

That still doesn't explain the 12.19 @ 117 MPH.

I have LTs, ORY, GMMG, Intake and I got 13.2 @ 108 MPH.

 

he's in a 240z, right? several hundred pounds weight reduction from an f-body.

 

1200lbs less than an f-body

 

what's it weigh in at, out of curiosity?

 

2420 lbs as it sat the day i raced it.

 

nice.

 

I did see you run, got your burnout then my damn camera battery died and by the time I swapped to my spare you were done. Btw, what's everyones option on the quality of the video? Video and control wise? Never filmed drag racing before and cut about an hour because my hands were shaking from excitement when I got there. Thanks!

 

Is your 240 burgundy, ran a 12.30 @ 116.94 against an orange chevelle that ran 13.09 @ 106.48?

 

Well, David what did you run? Ha ha. Where's the video.

 

13.7 if i round down, and 105.97mph with a 2.24 60ft. launching is my problem, but im getting there

 

larry we need to swap tires next time, so i can get some better traction. next fontana date is dec 2, but only getting 3 runs sucks big *****. and i didnt take a video, my buddy didnt have a camera? so i dunno we had soem good races to. anybodygoing to irwindale thurs?

 

It is a kind of burgundy color. Once upon a time it was blue and then got a terrible respray of some ugly red. I guess you could call it burgundy. I did run a 12.30 at 116 but I think it was against an orange second gen. I could be mistaken, but I am pretty positive I was racing an early 70s camaro on that pass. The other two passes I raced a c5 z06 and a honda hatchback. The guys with the camaro were having problems changing their slicks back to street tires afterwards. One of their lug nuts got stripped and wouldn't come off. I was trying to help them for a few minutes with some of my tools, but they didn't have it off by the time I left.

 

After pulling the video off my camera it is a 2nd gen orange camaro, when I posted that question I quickly look at my tape and looking at a 2.5" LCD screen it was hard to tell what the car was. Anyhow here is your 12.30 run I put up David:

Thanks for the footage!!

 

On a side note...this 260z ls1 car averaged 85mph back to AZ and got 32mpg using GPS to check average speed and distance I swear...I'm so doing this damn swap

 

No problemo, if you or anyone who I filmed wants a personal copy of their run(s) shoot me a PM with your email.
