OMG man, you need to work on those reaction times too. I believe BMR makes some lower control arms and a anti wheel hop upgrade for the goat. Time for some 9.5 inchers out back with some 275's on em. And dont be upset about your time, your independant rear, and lack of a stalled auto is probably why you had such shitty times. Shit, bone stock with 245's out back, my LS1 ran much better. You should be taking stock f-bodies with you power, if not off the line, then on the go. The MPH seem a little low. Work on the suspension. The main thing you need for a launch is to get all the weight over your rear tires, but by doing that, you may loose the handling of your car.

Reaction times don't mean anything, as mentioned I didn't care about them and the only time I tried to react to the light was the .594. The rest of the time I was going at my own pace working on the laucnh.


MPH is low because of the crappy 60ft times, this car definately will pull the LS1 guys from a roll etc, just launches like crap esp. w/ the shitty tires. You have a solid rear so you can get it down better from a stop as well.


BMR is who makes the drag bags, but again, I'm not really worried about dragging the car.

Have you had any runs with a modded ls1 fbod. Just asking, because i was able to pull on an LS2 GTO with just bolt ons and a tune. Granted he was an auto as well and i was stalled, so i was able to pull on himn from a 40 roll to about 100. With the small cam i have now i'm running a lot harder especially mid to high rpms. When i do the heads with the bigger cam i will be even further up there. You should just invest in wheels, tires, headers and a small cam. With a small to medium cam, you will be making stock z06 like power.
