FWIW, my 97 Camaro SS, full weight, with spare and jack, and me in it weighs 3620. I weigh 140 lbs. Thats with a half a tank of fuel. I would just take the car to a truck stop and drive it across a CAT scale. Cost $9.00 and is about as accurate as your going to get. Eric L

1/4 calc is not what your looking for. 1/4 trap speed. is. trap speed is the average of the last 66 feet
has it been to the track? my guess is about 116-117Comment

Not yet. Haven't had time at home with work and class. I'll have much more of a chance getting it to the track when I get it up to school. I would really like to get my fast on before I take it down the track though.
I was trapping ~108 with just some bolt-ons no tune last year, but that doesn't really mean anything.

So now I'm starting to think that it may have been a clutch slipping issue...saw a lot of smoke under the car at the upper end but didn't think anything of it. I'll get it down the track and see what happens. Either way I'm going to need to upgrade the clutch next summer.

Ok sounds good, have fun at the track! Did you install thse suspension parts?Comment

Well I just went over the videos I recorded from Monday again, and it's definite that smoke is POURING out of the bellhousing. Looks like I need a new clutch this spring...so how about a spec stage 8 billion?
Videos in a bit once they're done processing.

normally tire slip or clutch slip will show up on the torque curveComment

Could it just be oil burning off something then?

yeah that does look like an abnormal amount of smoke coming from down that way
