Ok so i went to the track again tonight. Alright all i did to my car was chop off the muffler and put on a flowmaster 40 series, so no it isnt completely stock, but i dont think the muffler did a single thing but make it louder. Anyways, the temp was in the 50's and it rained earier, and i believe this is some of the best times a near stock ss will see...

Only a 1000' foot track, and this run was against my dad's 2005 supercharged grand prix...

yeah it was a .500 light, so my dad red lit, but i still caught him, what yall think about a sub 12 1000'??????

 

That is a good time. I saw a 9.2 something somewhere around here.

 

it was good to see you get into the 11s man. very impressive times, and you can drive the hell outta that car. i only ran once and it was only my 4th run ever, but im satisfied. need to get some DRs to get the car to hook. get my 60' down and maybe break into the 8s in the 1/8 and low 11s in the 1000ft next spring. good to see you out there tonight. take it easy man

heres my slip. im in the right lane.

 

what were you in???

 

haha, the red gt. the guy you met last night with jason. guess i never did tell you what i drive. i dont know if he told you but i dont street race....much. if the queen caught me doing it she'd castrate me.

after my first run i rode with jason against the mach twice, then the rain came. kinda wish i wouldve made a few more runs to work on my R/T and get my 60' down. oh well, they open back up in two months. if you get that vid or our first race up let me know, i'd appreciate if you could send it to me. hope to see you around.

 

hey yeah man, i just didnt know who you were, the vids are on VHS-C, so if you know any way to get those onto a computer i would be ecstatic...
SOMEBODY ELSE LEAVE SOME COMMENTS!!!

 

man, that's awesome you hit 11's tonight! I knew your car had it in it Stu.. You too helty, that was a dang close race!! Me and carolyn were like "wwhoooaaaaa!!" the whole time down the track! haha

I cant wait to see that video man

 

whats up with the 1000 ft ets? You guys dont run 1/4 Mile's out there?
I dunno about your times, best stock times ive seen so far are a 14.98 and 14.50.

Um my best 1000ft would be 12.1

no one really goes by 1000ft times, only 1/4 mile ET and MPH.

I have seen a few people post 1/8 mile times...

Dunno.

 

This is the closest track . a 1/4 mile track is too far off to drive...

 

arkansas doesnt have a 1/4 track. just 1/8 and 1000ft. the nearest 1/4 is memphis i think. its what weve got, so we use it and have fun. hoping to take a weekend in the spring and head to a 1/4 track out of state. we'd lilke to get a big meet going, but we'll see

 

you can gauge the 1/4 off the 1000 man, mine was probably around a 14.3 1/4, yea?

 

its not an exact science, but on average, for cars like ours (ss/sc, srt's, GTs, LS1s) add about 2.0-2.5 seconds to your 1000ft and you have a rough guesstimate of your 1/4 time. again its not exact, but gives you a general idea of where you're at.

 

sweet times. i've never been to a 1000ft. track.

 

1000ft track is wierd, indeed!.. i'd love to go to a 1/4 track sometime tho

 

so is there a quicker ss/sc yet without the psi-fi kit or any major mods?

 

ttt. site seems busier tonight. c'mon, anyone have some comparable times?

here they are again....

i'm sure he's one of the quickest on the site.. he can drive like a ****.. and once again, here's my slip from the other weekend, i'm in the left lane.. car # 9041

 

DAMN 11.15!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

just to play devils advocate.....

that 11.15 run was against a 97LT1 w/ heads, longtubes, cam, and gears.


anyway, does anyone else have time slips for a stock or near stock...hell even a modded SS/SC for that matter? cause i really think i this guy is one of the better ss/sc drivers out there.

 

Yeah That's the timeslip i showed you the other night.. makes me proud haha


I agree with you helty,he can drive like a ****! Gotta give him props for driving the car damn good, not talking trash and being cool! Definately the only SS/SC owner I have respect for.

 

aw your so sweet... haha. yeah and another funny thing... my dad's grocery getter GTP beat a v-8 camaro out there, he said the guy was pissed, haha

 

I remember watching that race.. that was a nice, quick car! That guy can drive, but he's got some improvement to do, imo

 

what were you driving? that was me

 

Here's my slip. First time ever at a track (even as a spectator). Track temp was cool at about 10 degree Celcius (high 40 degree Farenheit). Bone stock with less than 5K km on the odometre (3125 miles)...I'm car # 184

 

so you ran 14.6? its hard to read... what do you think about mine
