I wonder what Dave runs in his stock 392 at the track?

C'mon guys...I aint that bad......

I have much love for my Camaro and Mustang brothers and sisters....and all car guys in general....

I dont know if I will take the GWE to the track....its not even broken in yet....but I will let you know if I do

There are hardly any 392's on the road...and even less guys who take it to the track..... so its hard to get a whole lot of info on what they can do.

If it makes any of you feel better I have a 6 speed so I will probably be a tad slower than the auto's

I am not taking back what I said........but I wish we could all just group hug the crap out of each other right now

11.4 is very nice especially on a stock rotating assembly. Its hard to turn up the boost on those cars and the camaro`s, chally`s and mustangs w/ out forged motors. I`m shooting for 10.5`s though on my stock motor, low boost 7-9lbs, nothing that touches oil will be changed, run and drive like stock, all thats needed is to air the tires down to run it. Whenever the stock motor finally goes I`ll build a big cube relatively low boost say 12-13lbs and see what she will do...

Looking at your pic I`m sure you could give several of us a group hug at the same time w/ that wingspan...Haha!

[bmwdon]

which Nitto DR's are you running gm? I got crap traction on the invo's, I don't think I want to go to R rated 20" tires, hoping the move to regular nt05's in the rear will help me out a little bit, but still let me drive in the wet without spinning it around if I take it easy as expected for bigger hp on the wet road.

Thanks man. Talk about crazy fast, DTP is in my area and they have the fastest new hemi car in the country, 9.27 or something like that. I got to watch it go down the track at the last rental I went to. Its a blue charger w/ a built 6.1 on boost and juice. That big beast gets it down the 1320 let me tell ya. When I finally due build a motor for mine hopefully I can give him some competition.

If you build he will def have competition from you......Better wear your seat belt...LOL......

Stock car aint sh*t when you really look at it......

[bmwdon]

exactly, how many or how long do folks with cars like these stay stock?

[HEMI DAVE]

^^^I bet that most people that buy these cars stay relatively stock.......^^^

Maybe someone will put a cat back exhaust or CAI........ some may get a tune.......

Not many people are going to supercharge, turbocharge or do an engine swap etc......

Most Camaro's ,Mustangs and Challengers I roll past dont even have an aftermarket exhaust .......I can hear that.

[bmwdon]

most folks I know have done the bpu's, hardly anybody rolls stock. know a good amount that go a bit beyond that, then a good few that go all out

[HEMI DAVE]

^^^^^Guess they dont have a racing mentality here in the big apple.....too much traffic to go fast

[bmwdon]

big apple, maybe not, but upstate ny, connecticut, mass, nj, most of our lx/lc bretheren that make out all the east coast meets are from up there. if you haven't already, try lxforums.com, we have our best collective of modern hemi knowledgable folks over there, starting from 05' until now, I think there are a couple guys over there waiting for diablo to finally crack the 392's and RT's new computer so they can go apeshit on the new motors and start getting stuff to market.
