Got Another Personal Best ET at E-Town
Hey, got another personal best at E-Town last night, here's the time slip.
r/t - .556
60' - 1.887
330 - 5.274
1/8 - 8.026
mph - 89.77
1000 - 10.365
1/4 - 12.332
MPH - 113.97
I'm pretty happy with that, I think I've gotten about all I can out of it before I do heads/cam. This run was on Nitto DRs 275/45/17 with a huge 2nd gear burnout!!!:D
Sorry Steve, I had to do it. :) At least you still have the better MPH. :D :D

Bill, great run....I was behind you for one of them, your car launches hard!!
You were not the only one with a personal best, my runs were on Firestone run flats:
60'--2.072
1/4--12.885
mph--108.84

That time is very impressive.
All I seem to think about these days are Head and Cam packages. You'll have an eleven second car when it's all said and done
Great Driving!

Very nice.......Very nice! Once I get my powerloader tweeked,I'll be right behind you.
It just goes to show you that this LS1 can get it done w/o heads and cam.Traction will make the difference.
Great times :chevy :chevy

Thanks guys. :D
RAT, I'm sure you just need practice or possibly some sticky tires to put that beast deep into the 11s. I found out Friday that a 2nd gear burnout REALLY helped my launch. I was doing 1st gear, but heated the tires up in second Friday and it made a big difference.
Also, I bested that ET again yesterday. I managed a 12.25 at 114.75, with a 1.896 60ft time. The temp was around 50 degrees both days.
