I made some suspension fixes and am having alignment done Friday morning to maximize drag racing 60' times while still being able to drive on the streets and occasional road track. I saw your times on the BMR 60' thread and was curious what you did for alignment specs. Also, what kind of rear tire pressures were you finding best?

Hopefully I'll make it back to Albuquerque for an event with the Camaro to see everyone again. I'll be there for Thanksgiving.... but usually take the van for that :(

Thanks, Garth

Hey Garth,

Sorry I don't get on here much anymore (even though Ivan did tell me about this and I completely forgot

).

I cant help you much on the alignment specs as mine is completely stock. I plan on working on that over the winter however.

As far as Pressure in the tires I found that on drag radials (M&H dragmasters) 16psi was the sweet spot for me. On Slicks (Hoosier 28x10) 13 worked pretty well for me 2 weeks ago. Couple vids below. These runs finally put the last nail in the coffin for my clutch however.

Our power levels look very close so I think if your Elevation is close to ours the pressure in the tires should be about the same.

My car in right lane...

Thanks Justin! I told you if you find something you like, the trade is worth it. But you have an awesome, unwrecked, car. If mine wouldn't have been wrecked I never would have gotten rid of it,

So what did you get? Sorry if I am not knowledable in all the lingo!

Bethgrce · 11-10-2012, 05:16 PM

Just looked it up and didn't realize it was the SLP car....what color did you get? Did you get a 2013?

It's the same color as mine, summit white with hugger orange hockey and rally stripes and inferno orange interior. It's a 2010. A billionaire bought a bunch of them and only drove 1 so I bought it with 28 miles.

I went with a McLeod RXT twin disc. A few people around here have had bad experiences with the RPS Twin Carbon and this clutch worked for them so I figured I would give it a shot.

Got it installed last night so I am doing my 500 mile workout now.

ZoMBiE_KMF · 11-10-2012, 08:49 PM

Awesome trade Audrey.

Does this one have more power than Bolt?
