[1970camaroRS]

Just got back. Only had two runs. I figure my race weight was 3650 or more. I'm a heavy dude at 350lbs, although I was 430lbs 5 months ago!

#1

Tires at 22lbs, easy launch, shifts at 6,500rpm (maiden voyage)
R/T - .428 (it's been 8 years, ok!)
60 - 1.892 (launched easy and peddled it because the tires hooked and it actually scared me a litte, used to a bit of spin)
330 - 5.353
1/8 - 8.140
MPH - 88.47
1000 - 10.554
1/4 - 12.590
MPH - 111

Expected a little bit more, but what can you ask for on the first trip? Nothing broke!

#2
Tires at 20lbs, footbraked, shifts set to 7,000rpm

Well, I pushed through the lights on the first yellow....no timing. However, the damn thing hooked well and the shifts at 7,000rpm really helped. Then there were sparks shooting out of the cowl from under the hood. They came from the direction of the alternator. Lifted at the 60'.

Things to fix - the accessories. Lots of flex, lots of slack in the belt and I think the sparks were from the alt pulley spinning on the shaft at 7,000rpm. Also, the car must go on a diet. Will work on that this summer. And the car needs more time being tuned. I am happy with 111 mph on an easy pass though. There's always that blue bottle in the trunk too...
