I went to the drag strip and got a new best time.

13.422 @ 101.89 with a 60' of 1.932

There maybe some left on the table - but I won't be going to look for it.

You are right - the LS1 has more sack to it.

I'll try to get some speed parts this winter on the car and then a good tune with a wide band O2. I'll give it a good go at it then.


That 13.422 run was a pretty good one. And my drag racer friends coached me a little cause I am not the best driver in the world. I tached 6500 at the line and the car hooked up pretty well. If you listen real close you can hear second gear chirp the tires. I made each shift at 63-6500 and I crossed the line in 3rd at about 6500.

The car has LCA, and PHB. Stock everywhere else. Stock intake, stock exhaust manifolds with stock ypip and 2 cats. The motor is stock with a tune from Scott Racing and Performance (http://www.ts-performance.com). Tracy Scott is a sponsor for FastFreaks.com.

I went to his shop yesturday and took pics:

That last pic of the Impala.... It is a 900 horsepower LT1. It broke the last dyno it was on.
