We were late rolling into Collinsville, approx 1 am Friday morning.
We were having transmission issues with the 001 Stage III Camaro before we left and just did not have time to install the new Nickeyized trans into the car. My best run was the first one where I just rolled of the line and hit second gear right away. I still couldn't get it into third or 4th with out tripple clutching it and that run, killed those syncros. It was a Mid 12sec run with a mph in the mid teens and a 2.0 60 foot. Not much you can do with all that HP without a properly functioning clutch and trans. Casey Wegner's Nickey went a best of 12.7 with a 113 trap speed, I believe. Both Casey/Stage II N/A and Emilio/Stage II S were first time drag racers ![]() All of the Nickey cars other than the 001 were on stock tires and the stock 360 or so rear wheel hp will overcome those tires. All the Stage II Nickey's are capable of low to mid 11 sec ets, with sticky tires, cooler air temps and a bit of driver practice. Congrats to Emilio. His Nickey Blackjack had the best ets of the day from our guys. |
