Finally in the 10s! (sorry not in the Camaro)

After running an 11.22 a few weeks back, I knew that I would be able to get a ten sooner or later.



I am still having a hard time getting the car to 60' (maybe the stock 100K mile struts and shocks are not helping )



Here is the rundown of the day:



60'...... 1.763
330.....4.767
1/8.....7.226
MPH....100.61
1000...9.326
1/4....11.084
MPH....128.38





60'......1.705
330.....4.721
1/8.....7.168
MPH....100.40
1000...9.276
1/4....11.047
MPH....127.22





60'......1.719
330.....4.733
1/8.....7.198
MPH....99.72
1000...9.327
1/4....11.118
MPH....125.8





60'......1.714
330.....4.715
1/8.....7.150
MPH....101.27
1000...9.240
1/4....10.999
MPH....128.18







60'......1.702
330.....4.668
1/8.....7.085
MPH....101.01
1000...9.156
1/4....10.893
MPH....129.9



Here's a quick vid that I patched together (sorry about the shaky screen, I need a quality camera and a Tri Pod for my wife, lol.)




My trap speed really supprised me. It was cooler with a slight tailwind the last time when I ran an 11.22 @ 127.9. I thought that my rap was going to go down an MPH or two, not go up.

I am very happy with the car and had a great day

I still need to do a little suspension work. Next things will be:

A weld in rear anti roll bar

Adjustable shocks and struts

Install my UPR chromoly lowers



I would like to get my 60' down to the low 1.6 or 1.5 range. I think that I may be able to get a 10.6X out of it.

Congrats on running so fast, that has to feel good and like Adric said the video doesn't work. I search YouTube trying to find it but with no luck.

I have tried all different ways to link it from the PC site, for some reason it does not work from here
