Excellent Corey!! I will keep this link just to show the world how ineficient those GTO are and how Pontiac made such of underachiever 4000lb boat. What a shame !! You pulled 2 seconds on a 400hp"american muscle car"

I think streetfire is acting weird.... I just tried it and it works.

My mods are:

tbe
intake
272 cams
fuel pump
boost controller (22>20.5psi)
10.5 hotside
02 housing
twin disk
93 octane

My car was customed tuned almost 2 years ago when I had 264's in it. I've added the cams, hotside, and 02 within the past few months. It could use a fresh tune on it.

What good is a drag racing forum if no one will comment on your progress, mistakes, or even just give a little advice to help you do better.

I guess you have to have thousands of dollars and running 9-10's in the 1/4 before all the nutswingers can actaully give a comment or advice.

I know its only a 1/8 mile track, but that is all I have around here and I don't want to travel hours to maybe run my car 1 time.

If you're not willing to put forth some effort to go to a REAL track, even if it requires a little drive, then why do you expect us to waste our effort commenting on your times? 1/8th-mile tracks are basically worthless in terms of worrying about the times, because they don't always correlate directly to 1/8th-mile times on a full 1/4-mile track. The only thing they help with is tracking improvement from mods (trap speed) and practicing your launching. There's really nothing to comment on with the times other than it's slow for the mods.
