I am terrible at drag racing haha. I am so inconsistent. My best run today was my first run which was 14.0829@98.28 with a 2.1108 60ft. From there my ET got worse and so did my 60ft haha. The ET ranged from 14.0829-14.4939 and my 60ft from 2.1108-2.2.2718. Before today my best was 14.0009@99.61 with a 2.16? 60ft.

It seems that when I try to improve my 60ft I end up making it worse lol. I tried launching at diff RPMs, that didn't do much. I tried just flooring it and that didn't help, tried easing into it that didn't help haha. I haven't been messing with the TC or anything and haven't been doing burnouts before (have General G-max tires not stock Pirellis). To be honest don't really know how to do a burnout other than when I spin a little off the line. I also haven't been able to mess with tire pressures yet.

I wish I remember what I did for my 2.1108 60ft run cause I would do that all the time lol.

Ok, figured out how to get the image to post right on this website for once, so here's my best time and it's from the Texas Camaro Nationals 2012 during the V6 Eliminations versus Alex (V6owner):

Tires:
- Mickey Thompson ET Street Radials mounted to 18" Z06 replica wheels and stock 20's on the front.

Performance Mods:
- Cold Air Inductions cold air intake w/ ADM air scoop
- VMax Motorsports CNC ported throttle body
- Rev Extreme oil catch can
- Stainless Works stainless steel 1-5/8" long-tube headers w/ thermal coating
- Solo Performance Mach X-LLT cat-back exhaust w/ j-pipes
- Circle D 3200 stall torque converter
- SS drive-shaft
- Limited-Slip Differential w/ 3.42 gear ratio
- SS rear axles and rear hubs
- Transmission cooler
- Cold Fusion Nitrous injection system (100-hp wet shot this time around)
- Pfadt suspension

Transmission: 6L50 (automatic)



Wish I had video of this run but I'm sure Alex has one since he had his GoPro setup on the outside of his car during the run.
