First run in the Trans Am

BL96TA · 10-29-2012, 12:12 AM

Went to Dorchester tonight (10-28-2012) expecting 8.3 out of the trans am and did better then expected. I ran a best of a 8.19 @86 with a 1.7 60ft. I know i have a high 8.0 in it, i didn't do anything to the car except tire pressure so doing a couple little things to it next time should hel[ the E/T out some My only mods are intake/exhaust, PCM tune and stall converter.

I think I saw ya. I was in the yellow C5Z.

Based on your times and my wheel hop I think we could have had some good runs between us lol.

Saw you make a couple of passes. The car looked really good!
