Subject: Mopar vs Bowtie.....Group Effort
Here's the bet between Father and Son. On the 12th, at Sears Point Drag
Strip, my son has bet me that his 2001 Camero with a 2.345 second handicap,
can still beat Our (I say "Our" because all of our reputations are at stake
here) 300F in the quarter mile. It's computer engineering verses old-style
torque and carbs. If any of you (Verity, Riehl, Hertog?) have any
suggestions, don't keep them to yourselves. Should the pup whip the Old Man,
he and the bride take the C rag to the wine tasting country, I win, they go
to church with me on Fathers Day and cook breakfast. Seems to me that the
Camero might do a 13.90 plus 2.34 equals
16.24 to beat. Air cleaners on? off? RPM launch? Just roll out and then
punch it? Shift with buttons? Timed for max with too much pinging? Amount
of air in rear tires? Open to any and all suggestions as a lot of people
will be watching.

Subject: Re: Mopar vs Bowtie.....Group Effort
Leave the air cleaners on. Set the timing at 12Deg BTDC. Use a 50/50 mix
of Cam II racing fuel and 91 oct pump gas. Have the widest set of tires on
the rear that you can find that will fit. Take everything out of the car
that isn't bolted down, (spare, jack, etc). Do not rev motor at starting
line; punch it from idle. Do not drive through the "water" ahead of the
starting line; go around it. Shift with the buttons at 4800 RPM. Give it
the gas as soon as you see the last yellow lite on the tree before the
green, (it will take a full second for that big 413 to respond anyway). If
you are really serious about it, raise the front torsion bar setting 2" and
run 20 lbs air in rear tires and spray the treads with belt dressing to
increase the grip off the line.
Your "F" should be able to do low to mid 15's at around 87 to 92 MPH in the
quarter. With that Camaros handicap (unless it's one of those 300+ hp
tuned-port injection systems), you should be able to take him. I hope he
enjoys his dinner.
Let us know how it all turns out.

Might think about unshrouding the air filters.
One trick that was supposed to help on the "newer" aircleaners
(those with a top like the mid 60's to mid 70's) was to invert
the aircleaner lid.
a round piece of flat metal and drilled for the holddown
stud might help a little.

Do NOT run without the air cleaners - the car will slow down (whether it
"sucks in" the hood insulation or not).

Oldest boys Fury III just underwent a minor tuneup.
The underhood pad is starting to come apart it seems.
We cleaned a lot of it out of the kids airfilter.
And he is running his car stone stock configuration.
Factory aircleaner housing intact.
To those of you who saw it in Plymouth Mi, he just turned 41,000
original miles with the car.

Subject: Re: Mopar vs Bowtie.....Group Effort
The new LT Camaro/Firebirds are quite formidable. I've seen street driven
examples go 13.50's and race prepared cars go 10's. Where did the 2.345
second handicap come from? You may have your hands full. The secret is to
not spin the tires on the starting line. The torque that the 413 produces
will be lost. I suggest that you beg, borrow or steal a set of low profile
10" Slicks on Chry or Ford rims and get in a few practice runs before the
showdown. Find a small diameter tire shorter than the stock tires, 26 in
diameter. Don't go in cold turkey or the kid will eat you alive, he's most
likely been practicing and knows his car. Many drag strips have Wednesday
nite test and tune sessions. Practice leaving the starting line at various
RPM to get the best 60 foot time. Try different tire pressures. Learn when
to mash the throttle to get a good reaction time. If you start your race
before him (reaction times in the .510-.520 range are hard to beat) you
stand a much better chance to win. Put new plugs and points in and set the
timing 2-4 degrees advanced. Make sure the carbs open all the way. Change
the oil, fresh oil seals the rings and produces less drag. See if K&N makes
a size that will fit your air cleaners, if you remove them leave the bases
on the carb to help airflow. Let the trans shift by itself so you don't over
rev in low. A good F would go 15.80's when new on street tires. Remember,
old age and treachery will beat youth and exuberance every time. Good Luck.

I ran 14.69 with my 440 powered F at E-Town without the air cleaners. They
ARE restrictive and I went faster without them. I do not have a hood pad to
worry about. If the car does not have sure grip, leave everything in the
trunk. You will need it for traction, especially with A/C up front. Loosen,
but don't remove the power steering belt. Pump the front tires up to maximum
inflation. Remove the sway bar for maximum weight transfer. If you can
practice before the race, do so. It will help you get used to driving on a
track and getting a good light. If you don't cut a good light, you will
loose.
300ly,
Don
