Default New best at the track (with video)

Went down to Atco on December 7th for a rental. Nice cold weather and had some great runs. Here's a vid of my best 60' (1.58). My best ET of the day was 11.44 and my best trap was 121.81. The car is a very mild H/C setup ($900 heads, 224/228 cam, stock LS6 intake) through a 12-bolt, 4.10s, MN12 (GTO) T56, and 16" ET Streets. Full weight (3,500 pounds without me in it).

wooo, nice run dude, if you dont mind me asking what heads and full cam spec do you have?? I narrowed my cam choice down to either a 220/224 or 224/228 for my A4 (currently stock stall but wll be 3000 later ) and ill run 3.42 or 3.73 gears in the 10 bolt for now. So i hope to maybe touch the high 11s

It's not the body flexing, but rather rolling (stock shocks and springs). I'm not sure if the right front wheel is coming off the ground at all but it does squat hard to the right. I need some adjustable shocks so I can really launch this thing.

Patriot 243s (the old $900 version). 224/228 581/588 113LSA. It's a nice cam. Decent peak power, strong torque curve, and excellent streetability. I enjoyed it most with 3.73 gears when I had the 10-bolt in terms of just cruising. Obviously the steeper gears and trans are better for dig/strip runs, though.

I'm honestly not sure. I'll see if I can dig up the cam card. I'm sure it's buried somewhere.
