Video: BOSS at the dragstrip

Anyone know what the record is for a bone stock BOSS? My buddy Matt thought the record for a bone stock 5.0 was 7.5x in the 1/8th mi..., but I'm not sure about the BOSS.

Anyways, took the car to the local track today just to see what it would do. Color me impressed! Got better and better as the day got longer, and at the end of the night drove off with a solid 7.77 (on slicks), full weight, nothing removed from the car.

Now to get to a road course!

Very impressive. Does your car have the Recaro/Torsen package?

what is the pop i hear at launch and with each gear change? it looked like the car almost lifted the front tires on that first launch! What would you think the qtr would look like with those 1/8th times?

Use 1/8 mile time multiplied by 1.57.

Negative on the R/T package.
The pop is the slicks chirping with each shift.

What was your 60 ft.? Seems like it's hooking hard and launch great!! Hardly any wheelspin. Which Drag radials are you using? size?

I'm surprised the track would have the landscapers present while people were racing, I can hear all the lawnmowers and leafblowers in the background of the video. Can't those guys come cut the grass during the week?
