1987 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z

Got a wild hair tonight and took the Camaro down to the track to see what the new cam would do.

Talk about no traction! No traction off the line. No Traction at the end of 1st. No traction shifting into 2nd.

Finally tamed her down through 11 runs!!!!!!, from the beginning 13.9@108.52 with driving technique and tire pressure and burnout.

This was my best time slip. No Twelves yet, but I'm damn happy! Previous personal best 13.0@106.7

Car# 732D
Lane: LEFT
R/T: 0.028
60': 2.220
1/8: 8.759
MPH: 86.40
1/4: 13.277
MPH: 110.03

YEEEEEEEHAW!

I really do need 4.11's and a diff that can handle slicks!

Yeah Paul, you would be there on the DR's, if you could keep an axle alive long enough to get out of the hole.

Holy smoke duder! 110 MPH trap - woo hoo.

Did you get my PM. If you want to slap the 3.27 nine bolt in and try the drag radials go for it.

Yeah we scraped and burned all the rubber off of the pad at the end of last year, it'll build up again in a couple weeks. Then you'll start getting some traction. Good times nonetheless. The cold air definitely helped with that MPH.
