Had a few guys with bone stock GN's with posi's running in the 14.1-14.4 range around 93-96mph on a hot summer day on crappy 215 tires.  On a cold day with the track glued to the nines high 13's no problem or with some good tires on a hot day.  These cars all had around 60k miles on them.

With the peg leg he is close.

Great info...thanks. I'm gonna swap in a set of valve springs...and then he can decide where he wants to go from there. And I'll recommend he put a new timing set in it. Time for me to get my own car dialed in. A few Hellcat owners were running their mouths at Armdrop a couple weeks back. Next one is Sept 12th...and I'm gonna roll in...and open up a great big can of whoopass. :rock:

I've got airbags and an adjustable RR snubber that I took off my car, would sell cheap to the "cause"

Time, date and location for the hellcat smack down?  Perhaps we can get a trip planned to the great white north. I'm sure by sept, temps in the evening will be turbo friendly up there

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Armdrop is at a deserted airfield in Picton. Mike's been up there road racing in the past, I believe. No time slips at Armdrop...but flapping their gums about 10's...but won't show at our local track. I was at Picton watching them a couple weeks back. All I saw was guys with too much money that can't 'pedal' a car.

I'll throw this on the calendar.  Wife's family is from the area... so I can run away for a few hours.  Might be fun if the TBSS has the Procharger on it. ;)

I'm easy to find. Just look for the black trailer that says...LORD VADER. YOUR GRAND NATIONAL IS READY  :)

Yeah... Just looked up Picton on the map.  I don't have any family up that way but I do have friends at Fort Drum....  Also, a little to close to the Ford vs Buick event in Oklahoma for me so you better get Mike to shoot some video of the beat down.  That will be some good ass footage! 28 year old V6 putting the smack down on modern day mopar
