The limited slip diff helps to put the power down to both wheels equally. The stock diff in the auto V6 is an open rear end, so once one wheel starts spinning on the track no power goes to the other one. So essentially you will have the traction of both tires instead of just one.

Have your friends stand on the passenger side of the track when you are making your runs to see if they see any wheel spin. The pass side tire will usually spin in an open rear diff.

Will do! I know that's where I think I'm hearing tire spin when they say they can't see it. But I will be looking for an ss diff in the near future

Hopefully this year with any luck I will see some improvements and move up the list from 5th in Nitrous and 7th overall. Problem is i have added more power but still have crap for tires to race on.

I am hoping the same thing... car went 13.26 in 3500DA with only 800 PSI in the bottle. I am hoping some better air and a bottle heater will get me closer to a 12 sec time slip. Over the winter I want to do a few things to it so that it will hit 12's in the bad air as well.

Had a blast, first time I've been to the drag strip in like 8-10 years! Thinking about doing twin turbos over the winter so thought I would take her to the track before performance mods. This is also with full brembo ss brakes (heavier) and my girlfriend in the passenger seat. She rode with me every pass and LOVED it.

Thanks for posting those slips. Sounds like you had a good time, and will be back again. Next time leave your girlfriend on the side line to take pictures too. probably a 0.1 faster without her. But then again more fun with her in the car too.......

Just need to get those 60 ' times down and you will be even faster.....

Nice runs JantzenOKC... We should figure out sometime next year to get the Oklahoma and Kansas Camaros at a track for some fun grudge racing.
