Re: GMHTP Supercar/Truck Shootout
Whats up peeps, just got settled in here. As mentioned earlier by Morgan, it rained early on over there. It rained on and off through the day. It felt like I wiped the Ty down at least 5 times. There was a pretty decent amount of cars/trucks on hand. A few models like the Impala SS and such were no shows but none-the-less some nice cars.
Some noteworthy vehicles included the Z06, a primo GNX, 2 turbo TA's, a ZR1, A Calloway, and a few Firehawks and WS6's.
Once the racing started it got fun :lol:
Joe's freak truck ran 13.8's off the bat with tires breaking loose, Eric chased the 14 mark all day, and Steve was getting used to the boost down the 1/4 for the first time in his life (I think he's hooked now)
I must say we had a very good representation there. All of us wore our NASTE shirts, stuck together and really put on a strong show. We were all family there.
Most of the vette guys seemed very unfamiliar tracking their cars except for the Z06 who just put balls to the wall and punched it. We were posting better numbers than the Calloway and ZR1 all day (go figure). And a few others you could tell didn't want to get into it.Theres lots of pics to come...
As for my times, here goes...keep in mind this was the first time my Ty was brought to the track:
1st run: 13.926 @ 96.18mph
2nd run: 14.005 @ 97.07
3rd run and best: 13.455 @ 99.41 with a 1.869 60'
The last run I managed to hold the line and get a Joe Keller type launch and bark the wheels :tup:
I'm sure I missed some details, but the others will chime in...

Re: GMHTP Supercar/Truck Shootout
1st run = 14.7 blew the IC off of the intake 3/4 down the track
2nd run = 14.4 no IC pump/fan
3rd run = 14.1 with stock wheels and IC pump/fan goin
on the way home, I blew the upper IC off of the intake twice.. let me tell you how much fun it is putting that back together while its piping hot on the side of the highway.. thank god for the mechanix gloves I got from Chris.. they definately saved me a burnt hand..
Overall it was a fun day, I'm not really happy with the way my truck ran.. but I guess a 14.1 for a 103k mile stock truck isn't too bad.
now to trouble shoot the new problems..

14.8-15.2 consistantly
all 3 dm runs showed that range at full boost

Re: GMHTP Supercar/Truck Shootout
oh yeah..
weight with my zr1s and me in the truck.. 4106
weight with stock wheels and me in the truck.. 3986
so yes, there is a difference.

Re: GMHTP Supercar/Truck Shootout
Make sure all your intercooler brackets are on and bolted up....that will cause the upper IC to become disconnected from the intake, had it happen a couple of times.
