had the car out at island this past sunday. it ran the best it every has. 9.28 @ 145mph. ive been trying to get in the 8s and im getting pretty close. the launch caught me off guard so i lifted. i really wish i just stayed in it but the car has never done that before. let me know what you think

Nice pass, nice looking car and a good reaction time. Air is good this time of the year. Good luck going for the 8's.

That would be great for car of the month(s).

Looks great! If wanna see an 8 second pass bring it to Atco. I'm an Island regular, this is not a jab at them at all, I'm just saying I run 2 tenths quicker there because of air quality. Also, stay in it next time!!

nice run wheels up!! love it. i may actually go to Island this sunday for test and tune. either in the 2006 dodge ram just to see what it can do, or in the camaro (still battling a knock-sensor issue for years. every time i am at WOT in 3rd gear i throw the check engine light for knock sensor, so if I do go sunday i'll prob just run 1/8th mile nice pass tho, keep em coming

Adjust that suspension so you wont see sky and youll be even closer to seeing 8s.

Nice launch pic, 145 enough for 8s?

145 is a little low for 8s but i am running nitrous. that pass was on a 175 shot. i think the most i could safely run is a 200 shot. if progressed correctly a 200 shot would do the trick. that pass i shifted at 7800 and trapped at 8000. thats really cranking for a sbc
