Finally Hit 11s - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

HickRocket1258 · 09-02-2007, 10:37 PM

My best time at the time was at Super Chevy a couple months back at Maple Grove with my camaro. Then it was a 12.01. The car was then running 12.10s the weekends after. Realized I needed to add some tranny fluid because it had been leaking slowly while it sits in between weekends it runs. Well this weekend the best run was 11.76. The car could probably still be tuned and pick up even more. Just happy I am finally now in the 11s.

Congratz Rob. Good to hear you finally got it. Any vids or anything of the runs?

zerioustt · 09-02-2007, 10:51 PM

grats man...and with some better air you should see a few hundredths.

HickRocket1258 · 09-02-2007, 11:34 PM

Nah Mark no video of the runs. But then again my friend's grandmother might have one since her grandmother always tapes her and her bro run.

And that is exactly what I'm trying to avoid at the time. That is what will most likely keep me from making it go any faster than 11.50. There is a lot I can do especially with the suspension but I'd rather keep that stock right now.

Congrad Rob, Which camero was it and post your 60' and 1/8 please. good job man.

Mike

HickRocket1258 · 09-03-2007, 04:06 PM

Mike that was with the '85 camaro. Don't worry I will let you know when the '69 is done and out on the track. But the 60' was 1.615 and the 1/8th mile was 7.503. The car is pulling some good mph at 115. Was actually almost 116.

mikes93 · 09-03-2007, 05:52 PM

LOL Rob, I'm not worried. I wish I could cut shorty like that.

HickRocket1258 · 09-03-2007, 05:57 PM

Yeah it gives me a nice push off the line. Cuts some crazy 60's. I like how I have the 3.90s instead of 4.10s for the rear. Gives me a little more top end than some of the other cars running around the same time. I know someone running a few tenths faster yet I have about one or two more mph than them.

mikes93 · 09-03-2007, 08:26 PM

Most races are won on the 1st 60 feet and I am sure you know that with all the time you put in at the track. But I thought if you're not topping out your motor than 4.10 would give you more trap speed also.

ThePrimerSuspect · 09-03-2007, 08:36 PM

buy my headers and get the mustang up there too.

Mike I wish I could explain it to you but I wouldn't know the exact explanation for it. But from what I have been learning, you will get the edge on E.T. right out of the gate but top end is slacking. I would get a little more mph but not the same E.T. I don't really know how to explain though. Plus the car is around 6500 now at the stripe, and any more gear and it will be whining almost too high.

And Primer Suspect I will get them from you, it's just taking me a little longer now that school has started up again for me.

congrats buddy!

dsturch1 · 09-04-2007, 12:22 AM

congrats on breaking 11s.....wish I could. lol.

1gmfanatik · 09-04-2007, 03:03 AM

Congrats...I'm soon to be working on an LS1 swap into a 93 S10 Blazer, and shooting for 11's to start with. Should be fun, just need to find a decent LS1 to start with. lol

doug · 09-05-2007, 02:24 AM

Why would you put it in a blazer? Put it in something else, lol.

Nice job Rob. ... you suck.
