ARH / Farks Camaro Runs 8.94!! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Farks Supercars · 07-22-2012, 10:42 PM

We had a great weekend at the Super Chevy race at Maple Grove this weekend. The track was excellent and we were able to run a record breaking 8.94 @ 153 mph. We have been making suspension tweaks after each race, this time we added a set of our own solid upper control arm bushings and they completely eliminated the wheel hop we were experiencing.

I want to thank Tom over at Hendrix Engineering for sending us a brand new set of axles before the race on very short notice.

We are definitely looking forward to Camaro5 Fest!!!

Here's the time slip and a video of the run:

I know Farks did the suspension, but who built the motor? Tune Time?

I attended the School of Automotive Machinists back in 2010. I built the engine as my project during school.
