New times, only made 2 passes. Didn’t want to push the car to hard seeing I’m gonna drive it to Memphis TN this week (1K+ miles). Car leaves nice and strait, yanked with wheels a bit.:eekdance: NYI was packed today 330+ cars, the line was almost the rt36 to get in. I raced in Pro class with some really fast car today.
1st qualifier, ripped off a 1.61 60’ felt great front end was really light.
car was flyin’ 97.5mph in the 1/8th 7.21et Some how I missed 4th not paying attention and watching the speedo, tach, end of the track to see how the new gears were gonna be. Coasted 11.8 @113. lol
2nd qualifier, hoping for a 1.5x 60’ dumped it at 6K. Front came up, and then unloaded. Slower 1.630 60’ 2nd gear came up really quick and hit the limiter a few times:ham: went 11.2 @ 122.5 I was thinking the car would trap more form what it picked up in the 1/8th. But I’m on the track for less time now, so the back half should be lower. I’m happy, still had all the stock interior in, just back seat I never have anyway. And a stock 3inch muffler.
Open headers, my one race seat, little more chassis work for a better 60’ (raise the front, it has to much rake with the bigger slicks) Its still might go 10.9 this year. No boost LS1 on stock heads, intake.
Well just a rollbar, gonna put it in tomorrow. Good thing too, on the way back tonight I went grocery shopping at wegmans. Forgot I have 4 wheels the jack and everything in the car still. Shit barely fit, I had to crush the hell of the wegmans big ass 8 paper towel bag thing in the front floor, to get the passenger door shut. That hatch too, lol
i got the same bar with the minitub/spring mounts/springs (bar came in, tubs were supposed to but arent yet)… and my bar is over the seats since i got the tubs. they did a nice job with it… door bars are decently low, and the ends are cut nice
roll bar is about done, fits great. No pics shop camara has a dead battery. The rear bars go thu the rear speaker grills, so there gone now, that kinda sucks. Still, have the door speakers, and rear seat ones for the ipod on the trip. I dont think I can fit the slicks under the hatch now.
But having Ttops are a huge help over hardtops installing it. Me and justin started fitting the hoop, and then go, “hey we can take out the Ttops” lol shit went right in. Its heavy tho almost 90#s with the hardwear.
