Finally got my 11's! - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

well sunday 10/28 was the big GTO race down at atco raceway...beautiful day for racing with negative DA's...only downside was the 15-20mph headwind we had ALL day. The car had been running 12.0's @ 115mph all day the last few times i ran at the track, so this time i came prepared with some weight reduction and skinnies up front.

pb for the day was as follows

1.702 60'
4.939 330
7.554 1/8th @ 94.63
9.825 1000
11.734 @ 118.87

with a PB MPH of 119.77 for the day, which is unheard of in GTO land for a "cam only" car. i pretty much took out the back seats, the passenger seat and a 35lb bracket that protects the car during a rear end collision. all together i probably saved about 150lbs by doing so. Im running a medium cam, headers, intake, tune, 3.91 gears, and slicks/skinnies, stock heads and intake manifold. Overall im pretty happy with the car even though i broke out in my class. i dialed in at 11.75 and told myself id go home happy if i broke out and went faster, and thats exactly what happend. Ah well theres always next year

Good job Alex!!! That car is moving.

redline · 10-30-2007, 08:23 PM

DAMN! 24mph on the back half

You almost ran a perfect run!

ozthunder · 10-30-2007, 08:27 PM

Awesome man!!..You took out the fuel bracket or the y brace thing? B/c that y brace may be 15 lbs tops lol

Brazen06 · 10-30-2007, 09:15 PM

yea skid plate, fuel tank brace, and V brace thingy as well. redline on my second run i had a 26 MPH difference in the back half....i was spinning pretty bad off the line, even on the slicks

ozthunder · 10-30-2007, 09:16 PM

lol..I have my FTB still..but the rest of that, including full trunk/spare/rear seats are gone. I took out the rear trim pieces, but put em back. BTW, 19mm for the seat belts!

Brazen06 · 10-30-2007, 09:20 PM

lol well i put the brace back in...i know im careful but i dont want some A**hole to rear end me and explode my GTO...lol my trunk pretty much stays gutted though...who needs a spare when you have GM roadside...

ozthunder · 10-30-2007, 09:26 PM

lol..amen. Dude, Firestone lost my key. Guess what? No one has a spare, but Australia.

Brazen06 · 10-30-2007, 09:29 PM

thats ok man my spare key is actually in my car...i know it makes no sense...how can i get the spare if its locked in my car? i should probably go get it out of there....

ozthunder · 10-30-2007, 09:31 PM

My spare was crushed with the previous owner. So i've been car less...oh and i greased up the brackets like a mofo. Instead of jacking this thread more, ill send you pics if Firestone ever returns my car. I think I found a solution, and it requires a whole new type of bracket.

Congrats on breaking that wall down Alex. I wish I could have been there.

Nice runs. Pretty damn quick, especially for the stock intake manifold.
