Took the 69 LSx Camaro to the Orlando 1/4 Mile Sunday...

[69MyWay]

Two runs only. Track was super busy coupled with a crash and several blown engines to slow things down.

Specs:

69 Camaro www.mcspeed.com
2000 LS1
SLP Stage III head/cam/LS6 intake/36# injectors
Long tube headers
TCI 2,900 stall
Transgo shift kit
9" with 3.5 gears
285-40-18 Goodyear EMT Runflats out back
VB&P fiberglass rear springs
Edelbrock shocks
7/8" sway bar
Car has full accessories - a/c, power windows...etc. etc. etc.

First run:

60' 2.092
1/8 8.236 89.13 mph
1/4 12.7 109.52 mph

Second run:

60' 2.070
1/8 8.121
1/4 12.539 110.74 mph

This on a full tank of gas which I figured would help with traction since I have a 22 gal plastic caprice tank fused in there that addes plenty of weight on the axle. My 60' stinks...but that is because I just rolled up in D3, rolled out on the green, then eased into it. I assume higher mph and ET (with traction) if I had sincerly launched the car. I just left it in D3 and let the computer shift.

If I could just squeeze that 60' down to 1.8 and hold it manually through red line...I think a 12.0 is not unreasonable!

The best part was leaving the track, rolling up the window, cranking down the a/c (it was over 80 degrees in Orlando this last Sunday), and cruising home with the stereo blasting, air pumping...and cruise control locked down.
