AMEN to that, but that is also what makes our cars badass is they weigh over 4k and still haul ass. My car weighs exactly 4400 with me in it and I weigh in 200lbs so its still a pig at 4200. I also like having a fully stock car with nothing taken out of it to run as fast as it can go. When I went to LSX Finals almost every car there had stripped interiors and still considered their cars true street 5th gens. I totally disagree. I have my calendar marked for C5 and will be dialed in by then...........I hope

Hopefully I'll be ready then as well... I will...

Going to the Mile in March and then on to the 1/4 mile venues...

I'll be bringing a load to the Fest... about 4200 lbs worth of it... as for how fast it'll go, that's yet to be determined...

And on top of that I think I'm done. It's fine the way it is. I really should try and drive it before the tires dry rot. At least you have a plan laid out and a time table. Unlike that trouble maker Mike P who is more worried about getting his Xbox custom painted to go in his 1200HP camaro!

I heard he's putting NAWS on it too.....gonna be a Fast and Furious bling car when he's done.....at least it will be FAST.....at least.....he hopes it will.

I'll be dealing with the ECS car tomorrow at Atco so we shall see who wins that battle. Maybe we can get a camaro in the Quick 8 with one of you guys next year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought the ECS cars were coming to the shootout?

Think of C5 as a self help group for that group of idiots. Like AA, or GA.

Island of Misfit Toys is one phrase I've heard used to describe us. I think idiots is probably more accurate.

We have a new nickname for the SSE car...... "The Load"..... ......at least it's better than "The Pile."

A few pics of the East Coast Shootout in Darlington, SC. It was actually a great event even though turnout was nothing like I expected. We were able to put down the best pass to date with the car coming in at 10.61@133.xx on a 1.5 60' time which was enough to take the fastest Camaro at the event. Not enough Camaros....only like 8 or 9 IIRC.

Raising the rear coil overs did nothing for the 60' time, in fact it seemed to have hurt it but with an M6....ya just never know. We are putting the car under the knife officially and the cage guy is coming over Monday to look it over...I also have the stock engine sold and the trans so out it comes.

When this car next hits the track it should be an RHS 427/F1R with a 4L80e/3600stall/transbrake combo that we will be looking to go deep into the 9s with. More to come.



The Vengeance Racing cars for the day. Lou has a sweet LS7/A&A Vette.

Deep into the 9's first time out. You know I'll be holding you to that!!!

Yeah...it worked out so well for you on the Farks car.

I'd love to do it first time out but there will be a lot of bugs and tuning I am sure....11s is easy....10s not that hard....9s will be tough.

Farks car doesn't count. That pass was illegal. It wasn't caged for a sub 10 second pass!!!

Btw, 10's is easy to. 9's..... Not so much!:(

Who wastes time in the 11's. The real men make a few, or a 100, passes in the 10's. I just wanted to make sure I had enough experience before I take the next step. I think I'm ready!!!

You can scold them in person and educate them on how to build their car at the Black Friday event....you going?

If we gutted our cars like the Farks car we would all be in the 9's easily. Their car weighed 3600lbs and if the old methodology is correct that every 100lbs is a tenth, then my 10.3 at 4400lbs would be .8 quicker putting me at a 9.5 run. I like keeping with you guys as you still have the same goal as me and that is making a TRUE street car that is 4k plus run 9's or quicker. Its also easier to run fast when its your shop car that you can work on 24/7. We are all on the verge of the 9 second barrier and I am going to make the statement that my first run out next time will be deep in the 9's.

Agreed!!!! I'm at 4179 with the change to 16" Bogarts from the 17's. Shit, I still run with my front sway bar. The shop car guys don't have to pay the $100+ an hr labor rates that add up fast. I'd be 9.6's if I was 3600#. If you look at it that way none of us are doing to bad.

They said about 60 cars.

[Whipped416]

I hope everyone is ready !!! once i finish everything left with my build i will be roaring by the end of the year .... 997rwhp on race gas and now adding a custom 300 shot from nitro dave... I love seeing eveyone really stepping up there game but i plan on being a factor..
I would rather stomp a stang or goat then race a fellow GM guy!!

Sounds badass....BUT.......only until you put down some nice passes at the track...otherwise it's all talk.

[Whipped416]

I hear u huffer i know once i hit the track with my m6 my 1st run will be in the 9;s wont be no ten thats for sure..if i ran a 10 with what i got i would have to sell it... as i was running 10's with just whipple and cam on dr;s
so when i hit it im shooting for 9-high 8 second passes.....
thats it i dont go with the monster 4.5

100% agreed. We are doing awesome being that we the CUSTOMER are running OUR cars and getting good passes. I would give anything to have my own shop to do whatever I wanted and I guarantee you I would have one fast 5th gen. No disrespect to the guys building shop cars just stating the other % of us without the knowledge and means to build these cars ourselves are chasing you down Without these awesome performance shops, we would still have slow fat pigs. I cant wait til next year

[HufferSS]

Mast Black Label LS7 Heads showed up.....I will get some better pictures today.

[SSE 4 2SS]

So Huff,

How much longer before all these nice pieces get together and party under the hood... .??

It's looking like some good parts are in the works...

[HufferSS]

Just waiting on pistons....which should be here any day..then it all starts going together. We expect to be up and running in February....might even end up being fast.

Being fast is not even a question... This thing is going to be smoking hot...I see mid nines in the not too distant future...

[HufferSS]

If it only goes mid 9 then I'll burn it and collect the insurance!



We're looking to go upper 8s.

yeah, but not on the first pass... seat time and set-up... High 8's is my ultimate goal as well... but it'll take a while to get there...

No...I doubt we can go 8.90 first pass out but within a couple of trips to the track that is what I am expecting...we'll see. Talk is cheap....nothing else on this damn car is.

All we're waiting for now are the pistons. Damn Diamond apparently makes these things out of unobtanium and the wait is going on 4 weeks so far and still no pistons.

Extremely nice heads, you can tell they took over Performance Induction...:drool :
