New track times
 
I didnt know where to put this cuz I didnt see a Racing Section so I put it here since its a V6 :)

We dont have a 1/4 track anywhere close to us here in Omaha, so we have to settle for an 1/8 mile track. :(

I havent posted track times on here before, but my previous personal best is 8.68 @ 79 mph 2.05 60'. I killed that this weekend :cool:

Dual stage 125 shot, minor weight reduction and 35 psi in Nitto 555R drag radials. Check my Cardomain for full mod list (page 2)

Run 1: :eek:
60'....1.98 <--- pb
1/8....8.51 <---- pb
trap...82 mph <---- pb


That run kicked @ss!!

Run 2:
60'.....1.97
1/8....8.54
trap...82 mph

Run 3:
60'....2.06
1/8....8.71
trap...80 mph

Run 4:
60'....2.03
1/8....8.74
trap...79 mph

I made 2 more runs too, both were 2.0x 60's, 8.86 and 8.91.

THEORECTICALLY, the 8.51 calculates to 13.19. If that holds true, I'll be completely satisfied with this car.

Overall it was a really fun night and I was flipping out when I saw 8.51 with a 1.9 60' since I was expecting 8.7's LOL.

I have videos of the runs, but its a painful, time consuming process to get them onto my comp. I will do it eventually though.

sweet man! congrats!

paarman97maro 06-04-2007 05:39 PM

nice!

Awesome Sho. Expect with calculating from 1/8 to 1/4 to lose a little time though. But you are damn close to that, and damn close to my times. Thats amazing considering you have no driveline or motor mods!

Congrats my fellow v6 brotha! :D

1 piece alum driveshaft
LSD
3.42 gears

Thanks for the comments fellas.

I'll be taking it to a 1/4 mile track in July when I get to Alabama for a 6 week school I have to attend for the Air Force. Lucky for me there is a nice 1/4 track near the base :D

blue89vert 06-04-2007 10:00 PM

thats badass dude. im impressed

98CamaroZ28 06-04-2007 10:25 PM

sick, Cant wait to see them, I bet that aluminum drive shaft and 3.42' make the biggest difference ever, I have a steel drive shaft and 2.73's, how lame is that...

ITSA6 06-05-2007 12:43 AM

Im pretty sure the 125 shot of nitrous makes the biggest difference :D jk

Scribner was the closest 1/4 track to Omaha (1 hour and 15 mins away), but they closed down 2 years ago.

All the 1/4 tracks are 3 hours away in each direction: Sioux Falls, Des Moines, KCIR or Heartland Park (Topeka). :(

All we have now is Mid America Motorplex which is only an 1/8 mile track.

ITSA6 06-05-2007 01:38 AM

they closed down scribner that sucks well yeah i am close to sioux falls but sucks for you heck i would rather go to topeka if it's the same distance for you

is that how you translated a 13.1 from the 1/8th to the 4th...Didnt know U had a 125 shot...I was wondering how u did those times on a v6...

Shodown 06-05-2007 02:09 AM

Another case of 'just a 6' :rolleyes:

98CamaroZ28 06-05-2007 02:14 AM

except the s/c 3.8 your thinking of is not the same s/c 3.8 in that camaro. haha..

98CamaroZ28 06-05-2007 02:20 AM

yea still, it was a built 6 and it was amazingly fast.

paarman97maro 06-05-2007 02:21 AM

but its just a v6.. not a camaro :nana:.

98CamaroZ28 06-05-2007 02:26 AM

its a camaro, hey the original corvette was a 6 and the first mustang only had a straight 6, I never said V6's were bad, Just drive a V8 lol. My dads GF bimmer has a straight 6 and it hauls balls on that 330 ci.

Shodown 06-05-2007 09:09 PM

I added 4 more vids to my post in the Videos section. :D
