Default Bunch of street/truck runs

Been a while since I've been on here, had a few fun races over the past 2-3 weeks and figured I'd update everyone.

Raced a buddies built everything/nitrous trans am. Should be around ~550 whp.

Did 2 races, first race 25 roll, I spun he hooked, pulled about 2 cars on me. By about 50 I stopped his pull and was slowly starting to reel him in but a car popped up so I let off in the middle of 3rd. Probably wouldn't have been able run him down anyways. Second race was a 40 roll, both hooked, he said his nitrous had a delay activating but I instantly pulled him and by the time I left off had 5+ cars on him easily.

Only have a vid of me winning, he never put the other vid on youtube, all well lol.

Then raced his friends r6, I'll just let the vids do the talking, first race we took off together, second race I waited until I heard him hit it before I did.


Last weekend I ran my buddies sick *** 09 ctsv sedan. M6, stock bottom end, cam, heads, ported blower/snout, upper and lower pullies, all usual bolt ons, e85. Dyno'd at 798 with 20*'s of timing, we raced when he was on 24*'s and from a 40-140 I put about a car and a half on him. Did this twice, same results. Really good racing and proud of my car for taking it down. No vids, he had a buddy who recorded from behind but lost the vid somehow.

Then today I just went to the track, terrible conditions, 90*s and 75% humidity. da of around 3k. First pass off the street was terrible, launched at 3k rpm and bogged, 1.8 60' 11.2@129. After that figured I'd get terrible times since the heat was killing the power(I trapped 136-139 a month or so ago). But let it cool down about an hour and made another hit, launched at 4k and it spun a little but did a 1.65 60' and went 10.68@134. Which is a new pb by a good margain. Very happy with how the car did today! Cant wait for the fall time, my only goal for the car is a ~10.5@140 which I believe is very very doable. Enjoy the vids guys!

Lol, I dont think the car has 9's in it. Not with me driving anyways. Like I've said before all I want to get out of it is a solid 10.5. Anything better is me overachieving lol.
