Default Went out to the track tonight (Video)

Buddy wanted to see what the G8 had in it. Did a best of 13.19 @ 105 i used a DA clac and got corrected times throughout the night of 12.90s. Left my car at home and rode with him since it was his first time racing a track i showed him around and what to do, stuck my go pro on his roof and i used his nice camera to get pics/vids (might see me wandering in video lol) but all that stuff is on his computer.

Not bad for a 4 door ! If he was running my car they would be awesome runs the thing is right where i was last season on my small shot. He's going to pick up a rear diff from a 2011 camaro next week. 3.45 gears instead of his current 2.92s or whatever they are.

sounds like some good runs! that diff should make a good amount of difference with the gear change, stronger too. I'm gonna have to head out there for a wednesday test n tune one of these days. Looks like a nice group of different cars running. That race with the red fbody was clooooose!! Who ended up winning it?

Nice Vids! That thing runs well and sounds great. Our other Audiologist just traded a black one for an M-3......big step up

I was expecting 110 mph traps (or better) with his full exhaust and tune.

His first pass was. 13.23 I think. Had a higher mph 107.xxx I think maybe 108. He bought a set of gto rims for drag radials
