I'm including my time in my sig and posting this thread so you know im not a poser. Last weekend in Rock Falls, WI.
First ever runs at a track for me so I had a great time.
It's a place to start, hopefully don't get addicted to it.
Need some tires and more tuning yet.

That 90-90 set up is killing your torque numbers. You do not need that big of an intake on a relatively docile motor. Your combo should be a mid to high 11 second combo which you don't quite have the MPH for yet. Even if you cut a 1.60 now you're right on the cusp of 12.00-11.99 which people are doing without cams. Get some sticky tires, somemore seat time and work on the tune. There is at least an 11.8x pass in that combo if not more

Yeah, budget is keeping the "planned build" from becoming a reality just yet.
I've got pretty much every part of the car slated for aftermarket replacement once the $$ is there.
Depending on what I get more time to do, it'll prob either be heads, tires or cosmetics.
Already have an E85 conversion in the works.
And yeah, hopefully I get more runs this summer, that was my first time out and its gonna get me back for sure, already looking to go later this month again.

Any idea how much it weighs?
BTW...Do they have test and tunes there or is it just the $69 bracket stuff? I want to get some runs in there before some real mods.

That was the test and tune @ Rock Falls
$70 per driver.
$10 per "pit crew" personnel.
They ask for $20 per, but give you $10 back if you only use one day of the weekend and turn in your bracelet.
How much it weighs?
No idea, i weighed in at 202lbs yesterday at my physical.
So whatever stock weight is + 202 at least.

Dude, the torque doesn't look very good but don't blame it on the FAST90. My bolt-on CTSV has a FAST90 and it pulled 402rwhp/387rwtq and ran a 8.51 @ 88.35 leaving off idle with a 2.053 60'. That's in a 4000 lbs 4 door car.
A cam with any kind of size to it can make decent use of a FAST 90. He may have other problems but that aint it.
