ok if you ever come I see you there..You bringing any fast cars? or just the black one? lol kidding....Very nice time ...What was the 60 ft 1.4? Automatic with a stall? what rwhp and dyno? nitrous? My car can probabally run that time with a good driver and drag pack..

Rob Petyo

The black one or the other black one

We could do some test & tune @ Atco or E-town and yes, we can do a power adder for either one.




My times are in the quick list in the C-5 Performance section quick list

Info:

Best 60' 1.34

I'm anxious for atco to open up. I'll be there as much as I can this year.

Where are the turns? Didn't a honda civic win the shoot out at MIR a few years back going in a straight line? (Damn Rob, that was a nice run)

Rob Petyo

George I am planning on picking up a set of Forgestars F14's in a 18 and 19" combo and maybe some Toyo 888's or something like that. With the Hotchkiss sways and 04 shocks so I can turn pretty well when setup for daily driving. I have poli bushings all around, would that hurt me? The one car still is stock with big brakes still, I just needs a better street tire than the ones I've been running. 04 suspension that was tuned in Nurenburgh

I ran some pretty fast Hondas. Those days are cool but there is so much junk in the parking lot when they are there.

My cars are really too fast to be ****ing around on the street unless I go out with my Et Streets for my dragpac in a 15" wheel but normal street tires are a waste of time anymore

GeorgeZNJ

The poly bushings are great, keep them. Both your cars would walk away, maybe even run away from mine. I think I'm going to bite the bullet and just pay the piper and buy the mps2's, or whatever the greatest and latest nitto has to offer for the street tires. Good to hear from you. I really didn't like the toyo's. I upgraded my suspension to the o4 shocks in 07 for the same reason you did. I also dry sumped the car to combat the oil starvation issues in hi g turns.

Rob Petyo

Thanks for the info on the bushings I only have them installed in the 98, the ride is so much tighter with them. I've been running C6/ Z06 shocks on it for a while but Tommy is putting on a set of 04 shocks, I think the 04's load a little different and want to see if I can pull the wheels off of the ground with them. Besides I think they may handle a bit nicer, I'll find out.

The 04 (a stroked LS-6 382 Ci ) has the shocks already but doesn't even run a sway bar on the street, I don't even have one. Any spirited driving and I would most likely upgrade them but it hasn't had a sway on the front in a few years.

I understood the Toyos's are a warm weather tire but are one of the stickiest. I'm going to have to talk to you more about some tires when I am closer to getting them. I usually just run a cheap street tire like HanKooks for the street, once they start to wear, they are almost useless, once the converter hits.

I Don't know about walking or running away from you with my small cubes (346) against your cam'd LS-3, mine just happen to do a qtr mile pretty well, I know your car runs well!!
I am now running a 15" Bogart R/t and a 16" Bogart 5 star fluted with a Hoosiers on the back and skinny on the front.

This was a couple of years ago with the 98 ... currently, the two of my cars are .03 seconds difference in times. I am hoping to go a it faster this year with both of them. If any of you are looking at maybe playing at the 10.00 index at local tracks, please let me know ...

For those who have not seen my 1998 Heads / Cam / NA car run, here is a short video showing how consistent these things can be.

I have the f14 forgestars on my car 1,500 to my door if you want to see them..They are nice. I want 18 , 18,I have 19 and 18. I do pretty well with my 3,000 lb z and 600rwhp 560 rwtorque on the street and hwy with 345/30/19 nt05r..

meinersk

Ron Higgins

Boy those are real fast cars Mr Hotwheels. Sorry I didn't stay later that day I'm going to do less racing this year but I'll try to catch up with u enjoy the snow. It's 72 degree and sunny here at Islamorda Fla. We Should have our cars here lol. Ron

Rob Petyo

Thanks for rubbing it in Ron, you're re funny like my retired coworker who was down there and calling in on our meetings at work we just happen to be in a blizzard warning here in the northeast

Hey, is the "Hooked-Up" charter still going out of there?

The last pass of the day, Marshalls car would have broke it's own record but (for whatever reason) my foot stopped when I launched 1/2 way down and then I hit it - went 2 mph faster then it ever went ... it has more in it

C8 Steve

When it warms up a bit I'll have to come down with a few of my buddies. About a hour-hour and a half ride each way but worth it to come out. Do you guys ever plan on going to the Clean empire meets that happen in Freehold? I figure thats kind of in between us. While its a lot of import stance guys, we do get a group of guys for runs and go out to spots.

meinersk

I was going to freehold meet every week..Its great when omar gtr guy joe ctsv and a few others are there..But a few times were pretty boring...Sometimes the guys from here go also with me...you have not seen my silver z there? theres a guy from down here that has a very fast gto..

C8 Steve

When I go I'm with a few of Omar's friends. Mostly go with the guy that had the tune time CTS V (tom) who just got the blue grand sport vette. Havn't seen your Z there couldn't make it down there much last season with work but this year planning on bringing my vette out a lot especially since I'm getting it back after more mods soon.

My buddy Tom is real good at finding people to get runs in, always looking for more people for that kind of stuff. What color is the GTO?

meinersk

Yeah tom is cool...I ran him a few times ...I have texted him about some meets....he likes to have fun..My kind of driver less talk more action..Joe has the silver cts v from tune time he comes to tomsriver meets alot..I went up to tom toget him too run he said sounds great so we did several times..and he ran a bunch of the other guys I know..Omar is like tom that way....no drama just fun.....the gto is white and is almost as fast as my car..What vette u have and what did u do? there was a guy with a 500 rwhp civic down here last night running a few guys..
