Another great night at the track. The Lethal Performance 2010
GT500 made its way deeper into the 9's cracking off a 9.66@146.19mph.
The weather was in the 60's with a little bit of moisture in the air.
Jeremy Martorella of UPR Products pulled the car up to the line for our
first run of the evening. With the 2 step set at 2100 he made the
launch. First gear looked awesome and so did the 1-2 shift.. However
after the shift the car broke loose and started going sideways but
Jeremy's professional race experience got the car back in the groove
and down the rest of the track shifting as fast as an automatic could.
As he passes the traps the board lit up with a 9.66@146.19mph. The car
ran 114.14mph through the 1/8th. This is still using a 4" pulley on the
4.0L Whipple which produces 21.5psi. We were using C16 with no methanol
and this is blower only. We're going to continue working on the
suspension and once it's dialed in we'll turn up the boost. Our goal is
to make an 8 second pass with the 6 speed making it the first GT500 in
the 8's with a manual transmission.
