Cam, Trojans and Ozzie Most Excellent Adventure

[Cam]

That's right!, a last minute trip to Sacramento Raceway nets some kickars times for the three amigos. What you are about to see ain't record runs...........nope, but we're fricking happy :banana:


I'll fill in the details tomorrow, gotta go night night now.

First off our buddy Oz netted a 12.4 today on street tires!:pepper:

Srgstnko from the GSRT boards ripped a 12.050 on juice (real close, let me get it exact tomorrow)

Trojan in his bad to the bone, professionally built, stroked and tuned "392 from hell" laid done these (005)..................oh so close bro!!!. :sad:

Me in my make shift SRT was almost there (014), but just couldn't make it happen.

It's been a long couple of days, more tomorrow.

Sorry J and to Matt as well. But this trip was one of those.........hey lets go now!! deals. Ya, DR's for both me and T. And I'll update some stuff later.....me tired.

[SilvaSurfer]

Congrats to all of you on those numbers. I truly understand an unplanned event that goes well. It one of those care free trips.

[bklynmag]

Nice times!

[Hemi31]

hehe......I was on the edge of my seat last night hoping Cam got into the 11's......every pass the phone rang with an update......lol....I was relaying everything I could think of and Cam was pulling out every trick he could think of as well.

[mikespy]

Congrats Cam...Chris...and Ozzie on some killer times...:beerchug:

[InferAl]

Ouch!! sooo close, Congradulations

[PaCharger]

I'm betting seats were ripped out, laxatives taken...etc...
Some great runs and times guys! Nice work!

DJ

[MAGNUM8R]

CAM don't need laxatives, believe me!!:doh:

Great runs guys, whata bunch o' nuts!!!

That is a LOOOONG drive to Sac Raceway!

[392Stu]

Yeh, but there has to be something he could have removed or cuttoff to get that extra 0.005:) I was blown away by the 116 mph. Is that a record for a stock block 6.1? Those were great runs all around. Goes to show what fun a road trip for so air can do. Trojan got soo close to it first time out too. Put a few miles breakin on that 392 and it will be there in bad weather.

CAM don't need laxatives, believe me!!:doh:

[thewagon]

wow, great times! It must have been all those damn bugs stuck to the front of the cars that slowed you down!!!! Next time wax them rides!

Really, fantastic job for a moments notice sprint :racing:

[RobAGD]

Great Times guys !!!

When I heard the first set of numbers and then the 2.0 60ft I told erik that you have to change your mindset from Drift to HOOK heheheheh

Now the question is did you unhook/remove the front sway bar ? Thats 20# ish hehehe

Man Jason no love at all on that ....

-Robert

[Trojan]

Can you say "missed it by that much"? It was killing us, I was second in line when the
racing started. 1st run of the day I posted a 12.18 with a 1.75 60'. Cam's had that look in his eyes, like todays the day. We made quite a few pass's, solid low 12's. Then Cam busted a 12.050, I was like dang! I got some work to do. Couple more pass's and I ran a 12.038, I only got 2 minutes of glory though as Cam went and ran a 12.006 followed up by a 12.005.
I went back out and ran a 12.007 to finish the day. The only thing I didnt think of was to hit the boys room to unload a lb or 2 of extra weight. It was a very exciting day.
Cam and I ran heads up a couple times. I couldnt pull on him, He was out front cuz he got me off the line and he never pulled away but I could'nt catch'm either. My best trap speed was 114. My best 60 was a 1.694. Last run of the day I said this is it lets get r done, I load up the conv to like 3k and let her rip. got the 1.694 60' and ran a 12.9 at 89 mph? go figure. Turns out I never got traction and ran the entire 1/4 spinning, it was pretty sick. I think a 12.99 @ 89mph is pretty funny. :beerchug:

[CoolVanilla]

Its all good gents. Glad the family... constraints... allowed ya the time! :wink:

So. Next weekend... :Na_Na_Na_Na: :friday:

[FlyByU]

Awesome times guys. Great news.

[tommyzdesign]

You guys forgot to drain your washer fluid. That would have done it.

Great times. Where's the video?

I was goint to mention that trick --it is a great idea Mark!

Congrats to all on the great times. apparently the track clock was broken, seemingly incapable of using the number 11

[fatchance]

I'm pretty sure none of these guys even have washer fluid units in thier rides.

Holy crap....nice times guys! Kudos to youdos!:not_worth

[MAGFX]

Wow, you guys are just having way too much fun.
Congrats and you will be there next time...and maybe at the "Rumble in the Desert".

Yeah, baby!:rock:

[MattRobertson]

Congrats guys! All you need is *one more mod* and you'll be in the 11's, all o' ye.

:D

[HEMI~C~]

Congrats gentlemen, I know how you guys feel. Its simply amazing to see such different cars running so close to each other.

[RobAGD]

Hey guys, just wonder what do those numbers tweak out to at sea level ?

As I recall you all have adjusted down in the past to see where you were at sea level, so for a fun change of pace try adjusting up :mrgreen:

Great runs guys !

Cam what intake set up were you running ?

-R

[1FST4DR]

Well just for the sake of argument, I'll be looking up the DA for each run just so this can be settled.


Which intake, well lets just say it wasn't the dual throttle bodies. But it was something very special. :Na_Na_Na_Na:

BTW everyone, in a nutshell. Yes I removed my passenger seat and rears. But remember, my hood weighs 70lbs and I installed two boxes of Dynamatt in the back, so it's pretty much a weight swap. I also installed my stock RT wheels up front and am running the Borbet rims with the Hoosiers. There was no hokis pokis with what I did. My cam is a mild 268, stil running my BnG from almost a year ago. 100 octane fuel.

IMO, my gains/strenghs were had with my heads and the wild intake manifold that Stu and I put together. We worked very hard to put together a complete package by matching all the componants.

[Junior]

Dang, 12.007 and 12.005? You fellas shoulda spit yer gum out!

[Ozzie]

And a most excellent adventure it was! A truly memorable day of racing with the greatest bunch of folks you'd ever want to hang out with. Thanks guys! And congratulations to Cam, Trojan and sgtstanko on their breathtaking runs. Knock, knock, knockin' on Eleven's door! Oh yeah ... :thumbs_u:

[nhdave]

Great job guys! We had some very interesting ideas to lose those unwanted thousands as Erik was updating us in chat. :mrgreen:

[Jaak]

Great times guys, and I know you had a blast....

Damn, all I can do is go outside and slide around in the snow. I think it's time for a drink. Yes, it's 7:12 in the morning.

[ko4000]

Great runs guys.. it is pretty cool to run all year 'round!!:racing:
I waiting for that temp to drop a bit here in S. FL!!:popcorn:

You guys came up to Sac and didn't let me know. Are you guys trying to do a sneak attack on me in my backyard? Nice times and nice runs, so so close, maybe if i was there i could of gave you guys something to motivate you.

Now that would have been damn fun. We decided to go like last minute for the most part, you know............"ROAD TRIP" Next time, you gotta come out and I'll make sure to get a hold of ya.

Dan, I'd have given my left hang me down for it.....it was that close.

Jan 19th in AZ, Rumble in the Desert. This will be one event no one will want to miss. :thumbs_u:

[MomsR/T]

Cam..............did you do much to change your car since the last time all of you went to the track?

Add a can of power?

What gives with the sudden stroke of good fortune and fast times?

[RobAGD]

He has been tweaking on stuff. but as I recall no wholesale changes.

Quaife, DR's and good air! But I now what your thinkin, :Na_Na_Na_Na:Im scratch'n in my head as well!

[PowerWagon896]

When you west coasters get good DA #s it's a double whammy considering that the dry conditions would contribute to great traction.

Often here on the "fast" coast, (BBB term) low DA #s are often accompanied by poor traction.

[MomsR/T]

ROFL!

You know what I'm thinking?

I'm just wondering out loud what made a cam / heads 6.1 run a 12.0; thats an amazing time no?

Our typical cars runing heads / cam run about 12.4 and dyno at about (+/-)450 rwhp tuned.

I hope this Meet-n-da-Middle thing happens so we can get all this cars consolidated and we can measure all these different combos on one track.

Nice runs guys.......:thumbs_u:

[Cam]

Well not like your thinking, but yes, I have done several things to fine tune my baby. I've been looking at the 6.1 manifold for over a year now. You have no idea how many 16oz thoughts went into this.

The manifold I ran at Shindig, I had flowed to start the experiment. Well that worked pretty good. So for the next step, Stu and I spent many hours talking about the where's, what's and do ya suppose? and after all that work was complete, we coated her innerds. Then I built a brand new intake system that spent many a run on the dyno proving what worked and what didn't.

Other then that I hit the track that day with a little over a 1/4 tank of 100 octane, we all ran the same gas that day. I did change my CAI filters as one of them had gotten wet on the way up, the other seemed fine. Paid great attention to fluid levels and crossed my fingers. I think the later is what made the difference.

But like T said, the quaif and DR's made up for my lack of straight line launch skill..............................god ya gotta love a expensive cheat!. :racing::mrgreen:

[Cam]

Ya really wanna know??, it's the intake system I developed, plain and simple. It's worth 15 -20 across the curve.

But I'd like to add a disclaimer too. This new system will work well on a good breathing motor, but I made to work with a killer breathing motor. And work it did. Several guys have seen it, but remember, beauty is only skin deep, she has a personnality too. :wink:

[X E Ryder]

NICE JOB GUYS!

It was the window washer fluid Im telling you, We filled them up cuz it was raining, I new it was a mistake. :doh:
I actually have a hole drilled in the side of my reservoir with a hose so I can only fill it to barely above the pump. Pulling the lower front plastic piece makes this an easy permanent weight loss mod.

For clean freakos like some of us, hell you could just remove the damn thing. :)

So it's not pretty but its effective? OK, I could see that.

My car has 10k miles on it I've never driven it pass Sacramento and thats only 50 mi. away. any thing further i just take the family wagon the magnum. AZ thats a road trip, how far is that from Sac. It would just suck to break an axle all the way out there.

Breaking at an event like this should be the last of your worries, we're all family bud, you'll be well taken care of. Just bring spares.

[DVSSRT8]

Yeah, I need to get some spares.

[Trojan]

yup! you should see the amount of spare parts/tools that comes out of Cams motorhome, uh I mean magnum. The piles just shy of the size of a volkswagon.
Its like inspector gadget, In 2 mins flat its loaded back up and he's ready to go, Meanwhile back at the ranch Im still trying to get my street rims back on.

We started at the same time and I looked over and he was friggin done. Then I look back again and he's under Carls car wrapped up in a knot with a tool in each hand and a flashlight in his mouth.

Right now as I speak he's working a second shift as a carpenter.
Wish I had that kind of energy when I was 30. :beerchug:

But yeah you need to carry spare 1/2 shafts at the track and come on down to the Rumble to run with us.

[fatchance]

^^^^that was funny, but true

[DVSSRT8]

Yeah that would be nice, we'll see if the misses let me out the house

hey trojan, what kinda tires? 1.69 60' is killin it

[Trojan]

Thanks PJ, heres what I run. Mickey Thompson 315's on 17" custom wheels.
http://www.jegs.com/images/photos/600/672/672-3743R.jpg

[Flanman]

What kind of wheels and what are the dimensions? That tire is supposed to be run on an 11-12" wide wheel. How the heck are you fitting that size of a wheel on your car?

[Trojan]

The 1 off CNC'd wheels I had made special, 11.5 x 17" and light as can be.
They fit perfect over my Brembo Gran Turismos.
