ADM Turbo Smokin and Unleached......

What a great weekend!! I had a blast running at the Camaro Nationals in Houston. There was lots of Texas power there and Fast1 set a new personal best. The weather was perfect and tune was right on thanks to Andy at ADM. He put in the extra time to get it just right! The new suspension parts and the 15" setup is the only way to go for my setup. It's making crazy power and pulls like a beast! I had a goal for the weekend that was mid 9's and 150+. They both happened without any issues. Taking home the trophy was just a bonus. There was some friendly competition between the Houston crowd but at the end of the day we all went out to eat and had a few drinks, or at least I did! That's why I like the Camaro world. The competition makes us faster but we are all willing to help each other and shake hands at the end of the day! Thanks H Town crew for putting on another great event!!!!

Im going to say that they are 7" backspace and either a 28" or 29" tire as this is what I am running and others who have the 15" conversion done

All we needed was Jamie (Supercharged SS) and it would have been a re-run of C5Fest III...

Except FASTER...

It was a blast and we were excited to have so many ADM cars come down for the event. You all put on quite a show.

How hard did you have to stand on the brakes at the end of the quarter? I've been 133 mph at that track and that was a little hairy. 150 mph must have been interesting...

There's quite a bit of runway with a big sweeping turnaround at the end. We do some autoX on that end of the track sometimes. But I'm sure at 150 it can come up pretty fast. I did 1.1 G's all the way around the turn a couple times. Guess if your brakes fail you can hope for good suspension...

The wheel he is using is only made in 6.5 and 7.5 back spacing. Trying to decide which one I'll be using.

Im using the 6.5" as the 7.5" might fit but it will be very close.
