1976stingrayonjuice: Are you running the stock rear end with those drag radials!? I'm also curious to know if you have forged internals with all that nitrous? (Rods/pistons/etc.) :eek: :eek:

Unfortunately with the IRS and no roll cage it's a moot point. He'll never keep up to hotrod12's 7.5 second Drag car...Now at the first corner....

Re: who has the fatest c3 here (Jman)
Fastest??? in what way???
Drags....easy those lucky guys with 1500 hp or some such, and a tanker truck following them to the grocery store....
SCCA type sports cars.....corner like crazy, no air conditioning or other creature comforts....stripped to the bone...acid dipped frames....
all around performance??? well,
I'm sure there are a LOT of cars out there better performing than I am in an all around measurement list....
but for a street driven by wifey-poo commuter vette, mine ain't all that bad...
about 375 hp, 700r4 tranny, DPFI closed loop, headers, 336 rear, wide tires/rims, R/Pinion steering, etc...certainly not the fastest in any catagory, and many all around cars in this sort of class can beat it across the board most likely....but as an all around street driver, and fun car....I have my moments...

Re: who has the fatest c3 here (1976stingrayonjuice)
I'm not sure i agree with Nitrous,i'd rather compare engine to engine to look at the real skill of the engine builder......i have done top speed of 136mph but that was after 850 meters not 400,my 74R takes a while to wind up with a 3.08 and 700R4......the only time it has been down a drag strip it was having carbie and traction problems and only ran high 13s.....it will probably run low 13s/high 12s with street exhausts and tires...i'm pretty happy with that...john :chevy
