NO Razor Thank You,

I do not have my time slip in in front of me, so i can't recall the 1/8th time. I will post the pass in video when I return from this business trip. May be 2 weeks.

Car = 87 Astro Roof GN, weight is 3500 with me, TRZ anti-roll, No cage,
love to drive all over town on the weekend, NO AC but had to keep the heater. Frame notch 325/50 MTs (don’t laugh why I can’t get it to hook on boost)

Motor= 109, 30over JE pistons, CAT crank prepped by DLS, K-1 rods, RJC girdle,
GN1 heads, 70mm throttle and plenum, cam is Mike L's (fullthrottlespeed) 215/220 roller, 83 precision inj, Precision 71HPQ turbo, Precision front mount,

Trans = TH400, MRVB, Tbreak, PTC conv, stock gear,

Alky Control dual nozzles. FAST Classic EMS

I built this car from Nov 2008 until Present. In my two car garage over the winter with coffee and a space heater. Yes 40 F is cold. Started going to track some. I had to learn how to drive this car all over again for it was down a few years. I learned right quick that traction was not going to come easy, so I started focusing on getting clean passes with 24lbs of boost (TUNING). With bad 60' time the car started flying. At 10.52@134 I went ahead and put on the second nozzle. I was doing two passes per track visit.
every two weeks appox. Then I went 10.33@136 one trip on the first pass and stopped good enough for me. Then a week later came back and I went straight to the staging lanes. Turned boost up 1 psi, First pass 10.06@139.3. done good enough for me for now.
My MAP sensor says 266kPa which is 23.88psig but Autometer gauge reads 25psi. Anyway, yea 60' was soft, did not want to waste the pass. The kicker is the 1-2 shift was at 5820, 2-3 at 6008 rpm. Man not trying to toot, but I think if everything stays put, I might get a nine second time slip. However, I am street racer, so will never try to get 60' below 1.5.
I have waiting to install double-adj AFCO rear shocks, TRZ front tubulars, and a shift light (i just can't look at my tach the whole pass)

Anyways, this is a lot of fun for me. I am just wondering what is the opinion for max boost level. Alky is currently on level 5.
Thanks,

Man..... that thing is cooking for only 24 psi boost. Your heads must really be working good with that camshaft...... seems like Jason White did well with that head cam combo..... It really works. Are your heads ported? or out-of-the-box Champion GN1's?
 
Well I missed the list by .01. My best pass was 10.52@129. Scott (Scott89TTA) got a late start. Our first trip to the track was on Halloween. :) But I had a string of 130-131 passes. I also had a string of 1.7-2.0 60 foots. :D My personal favorite was a 13.33@ 126.5 with a 3.0 60 foot. :D So it's got the power just not the hook. It never has been a good launching car though. Plus the idiot behind wheel has a habit of not completely flooring it. :rolleyes: Almost all of the passes were only 85% TPS and 19-20 psi. I need to make sure the gas pedal is going all the way down under "real world" conditions. But there is always next year. Not to bad for a alcohol system that everyone says can't get out of the 11s. :D
 
Yea man, methanol is really a blessing to a street car. I used to drive out the meeting spot with 5 gallons of C116 in my rear pass seat. I was high on gas fumes by the time I got there. I would have to stop a couple miles out and pour in the gas. Hoping I got the mixture right. And If the guys wanted to cruise somewhere I would just wait until they returned so i wouldn't run my $50 in gas out.

We are just lucky the fluid dynamics of the Buick V6 intake systems can handle saturated air.
I have found this is no easy task for a lot of EFI intake designs.

Blazer406 yea the heads were ordered with the Champion race port. He said they would not be hog out so that it compromises the integrity of the head. Basic CNC port.

I am going to install the AFCO shocks and work hard on getting a decent 60 ft. The battery is going in the trunk and I'm installing some TRZ control arms up front. Hooking comes easy for some. A friend has a stock suspension, TE60 turbo and kills 1.54 every time. WTF.

Anyways I would like to put down a really good high 9, but I do/will not push this motor over the edge. I've had my share of motor pops (none on alky).
 
WWOW!!!!!!!!!

that's is AWESOME!!!!!

good luck and hope to see you at the next event!!!
