Just curious on E.T

Just a quick question on E.T. My bucket list goal for next year was to get into the mid 12's with a Camaro SS. I plan on entering a couple bracket races and then will sell at the end of next summer. (little one going to school)

I have a 2010 Camaro SS A6. CAI/High Flow Cats/Axle Back exhaust/Custom Tune/BMR Trailing Arms/Drag Radials.

Haven't taken it to the strip yet with this setup, ran out of time here in MI. Do you think I can break 12.5 with this setup

Thanks

I think you can, go for it! Do you run at the strip in Martin? I am from Battle Creek. Variables will be temperature, how well the track is prepped, how hard you launch, but you should be able to hit it. Good luck

You should be able to get mid to low 12's with those mods. Biggest factor's are going to be your launch and trans tune.

I ran 12.37@112 1.85 with the mods you have listed, and 20" Nitto 555R drag radials, no wait reduction. With some weight reduction and more tuning I'm sure you could go 12.2's.

I ran a 12.76 on stock ZL1 rims and tires with those other mods, I concur.... 12.5 should be possible.
