Nice pass, nice looking car and a good reaction time. Air is good this time of the year. Good luck going for the 8's.

Looks great! If wanna see an 8 second pass bring it to Atco. I'm an Island regular, this is not a jab at them at all, I'm just saying I run 2 tenths quicker there because of air quality. Also, stay in it next time!!

nice run wheels up!! love it. i may actually go to Island this sunday for test and tune. either in the 2006 dodge ram just to see what it can do, or in the camaro (still battling a knock-sensor issue for years. every time i am at WOT in 3rd gear i throw the check engine light for knock sensor, so if I do go sunday i'll prob just run 1/8th mile nice pass tho, keep em coming

Adjust that suspension so you wont see sky and youll be even closer to seeing 8s.

145 is a little low for 8s but i am running nitrous. that pass was on a 175 shot. i think the most i could safely run is a 200 shot. if progressed correctly a 200 shot would do the trick. that pass i shifted at 7800 and trapped at 8000. thats really cranking for a sbc
