Default 88 NOTCH and the G-TECH

Took my notch out with some buddies of mine for the first time
and waxed everybody...One car had a supercharged 331 H/C/I
he couldn't get out the hole for nothing just buring out. I beat 2
other turbo charged eclipse and some of the HEMI boys. This is the
first time I ran my automatic and I'm taking it to the track this weekend.
The G-TECH said I was running 12.23 119.8 mph was my best run my 60ft
on that run was 4.27 and the other's where 4.80's. Not bad I don't think
for sliding on the street I pretty sure I'll be able to break the 11's on the track.
I have a Trickflow street burner, edelbrook aluminum performer heads (170) and a
B-cam...everybody tells me I need to upgrade my stuff but will it get that much
better than I already have. I have a 125shot too but I haven't used it yet...How
much can I can after the 11's with changing my H/C/I? I have a C4 AND 3:73 GEARS
and no suspension upgrades....

I don't see how that combo will yield such et at a track, I wouldn't be to excited just yet, go to the track and see what it'll do

I ran the exact time in the 8th at the track that the G-TECH was saying
but I'll let you know because I'm going to Gateway and run the 1/4 this
weekend I ran the 8th once and ran a 8.50 at 85mph in Charleston on my
first pass and then on the next past when I tried to really get on it my rearend
broke....I'll keep you informed though and I'll be taking the camera I have the
8.50 pass on video tape but it was my first time on the track and I really just wanted
not to tear my car up lololol...

My car runs 8.50's at around 85mph at the track, with around 2.25 60's, and it sure ain't gonna do no freakin 12.20's at 119mph.

When I ran the 8.50 it was my first time on the track
and I only had the car for about 2months and the rearend
was only pulling with one wheel this is when the next pass when
I got on it hard I almost ran into the guard raill but anyway going
to the track I will post the numbers and the times after this weekend
and the video.....when I ran the low 12 off the G-TECH my 8th time was
like 8.19 92mph my rearend works now and I went from the 4:10 to a 3:73
because I already had it so I just swapped them out the G-tech could be off
some as far as the weight and what not but from what I know it tends not to
be that far off but it could be.... I had 260ftbls of torque plugged in my SCT chip
and that's when I ran the low time and I had 390ftbl of torq and like 360hp if I'm
not mistaken I'll have my buddy read it to me later and post the exact numbers of what
it said....

THAT WAS A B.S past just my first time down the track I'll be that
no problem and I only had 1 tire pullin which it when ahead and broke
the last past. Seeing is believing and I have never lied on my car so
I'll post the time/slips and the video after the weekend. It's going to get
tuned this week and I'll have some slicks not street tires like I had the first time....
