cool pick... your car is about the same speed as mine at half track... 71-73 mph but i usualy cross the trap at 92-95.6 mph.. when you open her up casper you should attain that top end speed cos you have a great sixty footer... :wink:

It normally does 92-93mph at the end but the headwind was a shocker on the day. Everyone was down about 3-4mph from the talk around the traps.

I'll take it to Calder soon enough and hopefuly have a still night.. then hopefully we'll see some decent mph and the ET to go with it.

Hey there Cam :D That thing is a rocket.. I'm going to take you up on a steer of it oneday.. I'll be wearing the brown undies that day I think.

For those that are wondering.. yes, Cams car is also unopened.. thats what a Boss engine is capable of even before they lift the heads!

If I could get a 660 footer like that I would be at 14.5's.. I somehow dont think the lsd re tighten will do it.

What sacrifice? Can you name me another auto I6 with a dead stock, 100% unopened engine running 14.7's? Who cares about the MPH.. ET is all people look at. I'd be happy to run 80mph if I could improve on the ET. :D

In the end the I6 simply does not have the grunt to run really fast ET's on power alone. Its not like we can cruise off the line like a beefy V8 and then just wind it up to 110mph! Where the I6 has an advantage is weight and balance.. that means we can take advantage of a ripper 60' time and then ride that advantage as best we can till the end. Makes for slightly slower MPH but theres an aweful lot of I6's running 93-95mph and still sitting well in the 15's.

I see no sacrifice (and I LOVE making HSV's freak out on the road.. they dont know what hit them.. 0-speedlimit its over before it began for most of them :twisted: )

15.5 would be an average run but to get 96mph would mean a huge mid-high top end.. im asking what "USELESS" asked above ^

96 MPH indicates that your car is capable of a 13.9 to 14.5
