NEW PB yesterday

[malibu78]

Went to the track yesterday. Had great air but poor track prep. I have a tune, CAI,, skinnies and slicks. My car number is 204. By the way the car I ran against was an LS2 supercharged 2006 vette six speed manual. These 5.0's rock.

Slip got a little wrinkled...11.694 @118.67
Also nosed out a 78 malibu with a mild 454 in it. 11.95 to his 12.05

Have you ran the car on stock rubber? How much do you think the tires add to your ET?

 

[CruuzRR]

You and the tuner should be proud; great driving and car! 11.6 @ 118.6 is getting it with those mods for sure. Do you know the DA? Proof M6's can perform with great driver.

Lidio was very well know in the 90's when the Fox bodies were exploding on the scene. He kinda dropped off the radar in more recent years.

Da was -346 the car has gone 11.86 at 117.27 at a DA of 514 on stock front rims and tires and 275 60 15s drag radials and race stars. The car went 12.67 @ 114.8 with CAI, tune and stock rims and tires At a da of 1547. Slicks are worth .6 to .8 in my experience

Yes he was. I think he like to keep a low profile. The shop car is a 2012 5.0 California special. It is SC, stock weight, runs 10.40s on 20 inch rims and tires on pump gas. I went with his tune because he was very patient with all my questions and I love his shop motto "we don't have the fastest cars or cheapest prices, but we have the most reliable service." I may not have it verbatim regardless great guy and shop
