Just broke into the 9s! 9.87 @ 138mph — full build list inside
After 3 years of building I finally went 9.87 @ 138.4mph in my 2016 Camaro SS. Full build: LS3 stroked to 427ci, Procharger F1X, custom cam, ported heads, full BMR suspension, 275 Mickey Thompson ET Street Rs all four corners, Powerglide. Tune by Nick at Revolution Motorsports. This car is absolutely bonkers. Happy to answer questions on any part of the build.
1969 Camaro RS/SS clone LS3 swap — 2 year build finally complete!
Two years of blood, sweat, and tears. My 1969 Camaro RS/SS clone is finally done. LS3 crate engine, Tremec T56 Magnum, full BMR suspension overhaul, 18x10 Forgeline wheels with 295/40R18 Nitto NT555 G2s. The car makes 480whp on the dyno and handles like a modern sports car while still looking completely stock from the outside. Dream build achieved.
Track prep guide for beginners — what to do before your first strip night
After 6 years and hundreds of strip runs I put together a beginner prep list. 1) Check tire pressure — run 32-35psi on street tires, 18-22psi on drag radials. 2) Check fluid levels. 3) Empty your trunk and rear seat. 4) Disable traction control completely. 5) Warm up tires with 2 hard launches in the staging lane before your first timed run. 6) Stage shallow to reduce reaction time. 7) Breathe — your first run will be scary fast.
