I rarely get to run the car with work and all, but I made it last night to Houston Raceway Park. Well, me and 10,000,000,000 other people. I got there at 7:30 and left at 10:30 and only got 2 runs. All other time was spent in the staging lanes waiting...
Keep in mind, this is a stock motor with a B cam and long tubes. 3.73s in the rear and street tires.
Run 1: Spun, had to peddle first gear and shifted around 5K:
R/T: .251 (alseep)
60' : 2.118
330: 5.905
1/8: 9.046
1/4: 13.998
MPH: 99.7
Run 2: Hooked, shifted around 6K:
R/T : .179 (still sleeping)
60' : 2.083
330: 5.877
1/8: 9.027
1/4: 13.992
MPH: 97.69
I think this shows that with a good launch on some DRs that I could squeeze a 13.50 or better out of it. Gotta make use of every bit of the low end because the E7s choke at the high end of the track. It was everything I could do to stay ahead of the Duramax on the 2nd run bentley429isBAC
