Thanks for the clip that was sweet. Hey what did you beat?

 

[Army MP]

Wow, do you think you gave that Camaro enough of a headstart?

 

[REAPER231]

Thanks for the compliments guys....

And Phreaker...Thank you for putting up a Direct link to it.

Army MP.....Some cornmaros need big headstarts....


LittlesixSteve....it was a camaro....actually that car ran pretty well....Probably a shot on it...If I remember correctly,He ran 12.60@112-113

You have to forgive the leaving the line late...I was playing wth the boost leaving the line...I have only had the car to the track twice.

I would like to give some credit to (Eric)TurboTweak...That pass is running one of his street chips..with 24lbs of boost...I have just about a full tank of gas in the car,(gas Guage is Flakey).4 gallons of 110 mixed with the 94....

On the drive home,(80 mile Ride)I stopped for gas....And I could barely squeeze 4 gallons into it...Thats when I realized that the Car was making those passes on a full tank.

I have a race chip stting here...But I dont think the bottom end can handle it....The motor only has steel mains in it..And is studded.Along with the ARP rod bolts...I really dont want to find where the breaking point is,So I will leave it in its current tune for now...If it lives the entire season,I will turn it up at the end of the year.And see what she can really do....

I will be doing a real nice shortblock over the winter,So next season It will be in full kill mode 24/7....

Are you running a powerglide in that? It sounds like you only shifted it once.

Actually it is a 200(I beleive one of Bruce's tranny's)...It shifts out of L1 pretty quick after the launch(Maybe the Art Car 9"?)....The shift you hear on the track is the 2-3...The car still putt Putts along at 2000 Rpms at 60mph.

I shift the car at 5500 Rpm's

How fast did you run, i couldnt see the time clock.

Nice run, need to get that first gear to shift at a higher RPM!

Bryan...

It ran 10.57@127.58

the car has a transBrake in it,That activates when you put the car in Low1...So,You cannot hold the car in 1...When the car leaves the line,It shifts very quickly into 2,But for now,I guess I can live with it...Im not sure how to cure that problem,Other than pull the Tbrake out....Which I might do.

Grind on the govenor weight to allow the car to shift higher in all gears- Do a search to perform the proceedure.

i assume you are manually shifting the 2 and 3 gears to make it shift higher correct?

I too have the t-brake in my daily driver, works great when i have slicks on it
