Well I went to the track last night because the clutch has actually been feeling pretty good lately, and im damn glad that I did. This was my last pass of the night in roughly 80 degree and 60-70% humidity weather. Im in left lane-



Mods are GMPP Stage 2 pulley, injectors, belt, with a over the internets tune haha, 16's with DR's, full exhaust, intake, and SSC springs.

Reason I list the springs is because they have allowed much much smoother launches with the dr's on. Before I had the springs when the car would "hit" well off the line it would feel like the entire car was about to be ripped apart. Best 60' I could manage was a 2.09 before the springs. Now with the springs I would leave at the same RPM, the car would hit, and then just laid back some and accelerated smoothly. Much more controlled launch. This is probably mostly due to the castor being different in the front. Anyways, I had 19 psi in the left front, and roughly 17.3 on the right front. With better air I see a 10-second 96 mph 1000 foot pass as entirely possible.

 

very good numbers and trap

your tires don't rub with the springs on?

 

nope, no rubbage!

 

Damn good times Stu. Its so close now haha

 

what DRs do you have stu.
ive been lookin for some for 16s, and everyone tells me the smallest they can get is 255

 

damn good runs! that's what I like to see! a e.t. that actually makes since with the trap speed!

 

thanks guys. jermz man, with good air it would have been a 10! if only i could get weather and traction like this in memphis....

 

damn great run, but i'm kinda curious, what do you think the 1/4 mile time would be? seeing how you ran the 1000' in 11.1 sec?

 

it was 11.09!!! hahaha, it would be about a 13.2 in the quarter.

just for reference i ran the quarter in memphis on thursday for the power tour. my best best et was a 13.8 with a 11.66 1000' foot. and my 1/4 mph was 105 WITH only a 79mph 1/8. just for fun imagine if i had this run on there. about a 3-4 mph higher quarter trap (108-109mph) and 5-7 tenths off in the quarter (13.1-13.3 et). when i ran the quarter it was 95 degrees and 25% humidity. i see 12's as a very possible with great air and another good launch.

 

good stuff man sorry i didnt seem excited when you called last night mandy was pissing me off. i still cant beleive that i couldnt get below a 11.3 it was shitty. and dont tell me to put on my drs im doing 10s on stock tires. im gonna try taking off the boost control and see if that does anything this weekend.

 

its cool man, wish the air would have been good though

 

yeah it was damn hot and humid. but hey that tune is deffinately helping internet or not its better than regular gm stage 2. im mad thought you trapped 2 mph less than me and still ran 3 hundreths better.

 

oh yeah, the car is def. trapping well

 

`damn nice times man you have a very fast stage 2 car!

 

who made your tune?

 

thats what ive been trying to tell people for a while now haha.

ron something or other, black06ss is who got it for me, so he would know

 

it was ron 9919 i am running a tune by him as well nice guy he drives a redline. ive been running like a champ since his tune.

 

hmmm someone local to me is getting HPtuners.
interested to see what a tune can do for these cars

 

Damn, not bad all! Where did you pick up your DR's?
