Pics From Out Recent Track Event

[Mean Green z28]

So the Eastern F-Body Association along with the Mid Atlantic Cobra Association had their fall Shootout on the 5th of Oct. '08. Unfortunately, my car broke during the test runs (clutch gave up on me) so it sat for the rest of the day and I was on Photo duty ... lol

Pics that I took are here ... PICASA WEB ALBUM OF EFA/MACA SHOOTOUT 10-05-08

Some pics I picked out for the thread:

Everything but the car was slightly desaturated to bring out the color of the car (which was brightened/etc. a bit).

yeah he has not still done a full throttle launch using the trans brake. He only foot brakes it and just barely gets the revs up until it barely moves and just lets go and punches the throttle at the light. He still manages a 1.19 60' time with a 7.6* ET which is some crazy G's and the car is capable of .9* sec 60' times on the transbrake which will put him in the low 7's for sure. He just got it early this year so he's still getting used to it, maybe later this year or next year he'll be ready to go full balls to the wall!!!

That the T-Rex ... http://www.campagnamotors.com/T-REX/specs.html ... this one at the track is turbocharged too so it's ridiculous!!! I believe It's based off the Kawi ZX14 Engine which pumps out almost 200HP anyway and with the turbo, it's just asking to roast the tires ... well he did have traction issues
