60'.....2.026
1/8.....8.597
mph....84.19

1/4.....13.263
mph.....105.99

...on street tires, with drag radials or slicks this would be a 12 second car.

:bow:

Your move Paul......rematch with the trans am?

Nice job! I would have gone, but had other things going on. Do you have any plans to put slicks on it?

Thanks! I'm not gonna spend the money to run slicks, I know it'll be a 12.9-12.8 or so pass. Plus I'll start putting more strain on the stock 7.5 inch diff, which I don't want to risk grenading just to run a few tenths quicker. I'm calling this "enough" before it gets really expensive. The camaro is a reliable easy driver/weekend racer; if I keep going I'll end up spending more time and money fixing it than driving it.

Good run and wise decision. Good to see that you can keep up to a 5.0 Stang now.

If I attend WCBF for another rematch it'll likely be with the SSEi.

So ya, I'll run against you again and it'll be a much more even match regardless of which car I finally decide to bring. :twisted:

......it's a Formula Firebird, not a TransAm. [-X
