Got new mickey thompson et street radial pros. 275/60/15. They are abit taller than my old 295/55/15's but tread width is narrower so they do no hit the fender lips and rub tire. Section width seems similar tho


First hit leaving somewhat light produced a new best of 1.31 60 foot! I was happy! 23 psi boost went 8.87 at 154. Next run i tried leaving harder and put more timing in it blew tires off

After some oil downs i only got one more pass this night. Final run i went back to my first run settings and still spun momentarily but throttled enough to save it

 

Haulin *** like usual! Grats on the new best man! Out of curiosity those stock 18x9.5 fronts? I'm surprised you don't run a skinny on the car. Like I said before I like the way they match the racestars

Jay

 

Love it!! Announcer says "If you need to get somewhere in a hurry, hop in that Camaro, He will get you there!!"

Very nice!

 

kickass! it sounds friggin sweet.

 

18x8.5 fronts lol skinnies some day

 

F@ckin Bad@ss.................love it

 

After pedaling it, it hooked up and carried the left front 90 ft

 

X2^2

Holy shcow!!! That's haulin ***!

 

Sounds great! Black rocket....do you have vids from inside the car?

 

whats the fastest 1/8 mile and MPH? just wondering.

 

Freakin' moving...

 

5.66 at 130 on that pass

 

Yeah thats getting there. My cousins in a 10.5 radial class around here. hes went 5.20's and a few teens for a lil while and finally got the car to hold it better to the track thinks he can get to 5.0's. like around here hes one of the fastest in his class, but he goes down to Maryland International Raceway alot. He cant keep up with them turbo cars, some are in the 4.50- 4.30 range going like 180 or so. In the 1/8th !!! not really street cars tho, hes running like 14:1 compression with a 442ci sbc. two stage nitrous car.

 

so awesome...must be one hell of a ride. congrats!

 

Dang Orr, your car is getting it done man! I'm really happy to see your hard work paying off.

 

Just went 8.51 at 165.75

Vid coming tonight

 

Justin, that is seriously hauling the groceries Congrat's, really like seeing a 3rd gen putting down the numbers.

RBob.

 

 

Couple other ones

 

Very nice. Thank you for posting the videos.

 

You my friend are representing 3rd gens across the country. I need to get to the track and post some videos of me doing the same thing, but of course not as fast LOL!

 

Staging in the Quick 8 event. Qualified number 3 on a 1000ft based pass when charge pipe came out. 8.61 pass lol

But it rained out before first round started

 

They let you run 160+ with no 'chute?

 

Yup

 

Dude that things soooo FAST!

 

Amazing Sir! Mine gets slower and you're getting in sight of 7's LOL.


Do you drive this on the street much at all any more?

 

Lol i drive it a good bit. I dont own a trailer

 

I need my Iroc to run like this. I'd be more likely to want to keep it around!!


Great job Justin! Amazing car.

 

My biggest issue is inconsistant starts both hot and cold. Its real picky on fueling and never seems to stay consistant. But it will fire and run. Once warm and running its an amazing driver

 

I was so happy with my new trap speed of 120 till I saw you vid. My car is slow... congrats man. That is one wicked fast thirdgen!

 

Your car is my favorite third gen. That is frickin insane how fast you are getting! I love how it squats like mad all the way to the 1/8th! Awesome! Keep posting videos, I can watch them all day! I forget, are you running a trans brake? How much boost on the launch?

 

Scary Saweetness!

 

Trans brake, usually between 4-7 psi depending what track is holding

Thanks!

 

My buddy has a rail dragster that he dial's 8.60's! Unreeal!

 

Boy, that red 4th gen looked fast if he didnt spin out in that video.

Are all you guys buddies or just track guys?

Very nice!!

 

All friends to some deg. Lol. That red 4th gen is brutal! Its been 8.02 at 178

 

I was thinking.. In that one vid you sure hear it spooling up.

You know anything about cummins? Im thinking about buying a 2wd 93 dodge w cummins. Thing is from Arizona so its clean and solid. But tubbing it and heavily modding the engine.
Another project!! Gotta finish the first one... lol

 

Nlol the red car owner is 87_TA on this board. He had a sweet purple 87 trans am. If his car wouldnt have blown a slick off the rim and wreck, this motor would have ended up in it.

And no i dont know anything on diesels

 

 

Nice pic man. Very nice.

 

Yeah it is. Nice pic!

 

Congrats on another PB!

Keep the pics and vids coming... Lovin it! Keeps me going while I am pondering my next build.

Great job man on build and times.

 

Well done Orr.
PS. Keep the big front tire...

 

Oops

 

Yep, that's cool too. Little bit of sleeper attitude at the track

 

Car is gonna rest for awhile til likely october or unless we get a cold sept night. Gonna max it out and shoot for bottom 8's at 170 soon as its cold enough but still warm enough to hook.

Now that my blue car is alive and well, i will be playing with that this weekend hopefully

 

Nice! I just watched the vid again. wow. Thats awesome.

Question,

Does it feel like the car has more? Like how much more mph? Or is she pretty wound up after the 1/4?

 

On current tune? I think i could find 1-2 more by playing with air fuel and timing in certain spots. If i can apply power faster it would pick up but traction can be limited lol
Its around 200 rpm away from the current limiter so there is room to go higher. I can raise it 100-150 more

But i have 3-4 more psi possible on the setup i can still use if the co2 can command it. That should get me 3-5 mph more i hope. I want to see 170

 

Wow. Be careful man.

There must be a check list you go through eh?

Nice work!

 

Naw. I just drive in, add ice to the intercooler tank and go.
