I went to the local track last night for TnT and got in a few runs. I have the GM stage kit and ADM catback exhaust. This track is Zmax Dragway and is a brand new track. The track prep is not very good and it was hotter than hell with the humidity at 90+%, so needless to say it wasn't a great night. I am sure that I can get a 14.0?@100.??MPH run with a good launch. Here's my times.

1. 60' - 2.455 1/8 - 9.708@79.02MPH 1/4 - 14.612@97.65MPH
2. 60' - 2.299 1/8 - 9.343@80.17MPH 1/4 - 14.203@98.61MPH
3. 60' - 2.468 1/8 - 9.799@78.57MPH 1/4 - 14.699@98.63MPH
4. 60' - 2.463 1/8 - 9.663@79.41MPH 1/4 - 14.542@98.98MPH
5. 60' - 2.404 1/8 - 9.570@79.77MPH 1/4 - 14.439@99.09MPH

I will have video of a couple of my runs loaded up later on this weekend.

 

Not too shabby Isn't the Zmax Dragway the one with 4 lanes?

 

Thats not bad, have any idea on the track DA altitude? I ran a 14.168@102.05 with a 2.468 60' with my 09 ss with my first tune ever on hptuners. It was humid but not too hot outside. Are you staying in 3rd or shifting to 4th? I changed my rev limiter to 7k so I can stay in 3rd and not hit the revlimiter for next time.

 

Wish we had a 1/4mi track here! Might be running mine at the 1/8mi tonight!

 

I met mr Jekyll up there for some runs as well! I was running my TransAm and my HHR SS, but my SS is stock and I've owned it for a full 2 weeks now. I'm still very much getting used to launching it and haven't had much time to play with the differences between no traction control or using competitive mode/launch control. Here are my times:

HHR - 15.433 @ 93.72 and 15.466 @ 93.53
I did slightly bogg both runs. I know I could pull a little better times than this, but I just don't have a good enough feel for it yet to know exactly what I might get down to. I was able to stay in 3rd gear at those times.

TA - 13.641 @ 105.46 / 13.863 @ 105.18 / 14.426 @ 104.11
WOW, my BEST 1/8 split time was 0.8 slower than my consistent time on slicks and the second best 1/8 was a full second off... not to mention the one that I just completely sucked on. Knowing my 1/8 times on slicks makes me at least feel good that I could EASILY make it to mid 12's, but I do suck on street tires in this car...


BTW, not really an easy task to switch back and forth between two cars and try to learn and make adjustments to your driving in each. Also agreed the hot/humid afternoon wasn't helping the times any. I saw PLENTY of cars not putting down the times I expectd to see...

 

Yep, last week, Speed channel just ran the Pinks All-Out episode that was filmed there.

 

Here's video of my 14.2 run and my 14.5 run, as well as a couple of my buddies.

 

Goody, it was great to meet you. It was awesome to turn around in the staging lanes and finally see another HHR.

 

I knew it sounded familiar

 

I was planning to enter my TA in that episode of Pinks and after a few weeks of thinking I was doing so I found out it had filled up within 15min 3 months prior...

Jekyll, hopefully I'll have a few mods in the near future and we'll have 2 HHR's up there making some impressions!!!
