sounds like you need some direct exhaust injection.

no time slip because shadyside.... but 8.29@88, russ watched it happen. first pass that he didnt see was 8.24@89.2 i believe. no slip either :-/... air was 2000ft better than it was on thursday and i learned how to launch the car. Greers timeslip showed 8.7@85mph... effin miserable but in 2700ft DA and a 2.22 60-ft because it damn near cut off.

after leaving the track... hendo went 7.80s on motor and 7.ooohhhhhhhhs on a 100shot.


also, its not sketchy driving 60 miles on the highway on et drags...

My fucking camaro is slow. 8.31/88ish Mph on a bog so bad i about hit my face on the steering wheel. Once again no time slip. Did run 8.41 missing 3rd on my last try. Oh well.

Smoked Cones ass head to head in a pedal fest that would have made John Force smile lol

5th gens need more gear would be an understatement.

lol sitting at 5k in 1st gear from the tree to 80-100ft out was hilarious. I think they un-prepped the track between our first pass and second.

GXP's need moar gear too...
2.97 1st and a 3.7 rear is not enough... apprently yukon makes a 4.11 but thats the most i can get for anything and thats for a 2010+camaro rear.

We would have been a good race with the truck! Must have done a few mods (like HIDs) since we last talked about setting one up, since then you were high 8s..

1 3/4"x3" slp headers w/ cats
rotofab intake
tune
stock forged 19x8s with 245/40R19 Michelin Primacy touring tires.

secondary cats/midmuffler/h-pipe replaced with magnaflow 2.25" x-pipe
obx-r axleback
VCM OTR intake
powerbond 25% UDP

Katech LS9R twin disk
20x8/20x9 camaro wheels with nitto 555's 245/35R20 and 275/30R20


The main thing was launching the car and actually shifting it lol
