Black2003SS Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 For those who might be interested...with video... ZZP Smashes the 3800 FWD ET Record! Sat 10-18, we headed out to Knoll Gas Motorsports Park today for their test/tune session. The first pass out of the trailer, boost was set to 22 psi. The burnout was poor so the car was launched at a paultry 4psi. Boost was bumped to 24 in the back half. This was good enough to take the record back by a significant margin and close in on 160mph traps. 60' 1.4232 1/8 5.6610 @ 129.00mph 1/4 8.7292 @ 159.52mph For the second pass, we dropped the tire pressure a little, got a little better burnout, and launched at 7 psi. 60' 1.3560 1/8 5.5823 @ 128.88mph 1/4 8.6582 @ 158.97mph Then they glued the track. Watching a few RWD cars ride the wheelie bars well past the sixty foot, Matt decided to get more aggressive. We dropped the tire pressure a little more, set the boost controller to run 26 psi the whole pass, and got a better burnout. Launching at 9 psi and it stuck! Unfortunately this was too much for the drivetrain. Something let go about 1 second into the run and it reved to ~8000 RPM. At first glance it appears that the driver side axle let go, but we will have to do a full inspection before knowing for certain what broke. We'll update once the info is available.

Fireman31 Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Defintely bad ass, ZZP has always been the leader in cutting edge FWD GM performance. I remember their twin charged GP(blower & turbo) that ran 9s....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
