1st Time: M6 Procharged Drag Strip

nezoid · 07-09-2018, 12:11 PM

I went to the track for the first time ever. Quite a rush.

2016 m6 Procharged 2SS (P-1X, canned tune)
Stock tires w/13,000 miles on them.

1st Run:
I avoided the water box and did a quick burnout. Tried using Launch Control, and just ended up spinning.

Time Slip:

2nd Run:
Went through the water box this time and tired a little longer burnout (.5 sec?) Launched at 2000ish RPM, still was nervous and had no clue as to what I was doing. At least it seemed to hook quite a bit better. Used no lift shift which chirped the tires at each shift.

Time slip:

All in all, I had great fun and still hoping to get that number ET a bit lower. I plan to get some sort of drag specific wheels/tires (rears) but not 100% sure on the direction I want to go.

Damn good job for your first time

danhr · 07-09-2018, 02:00 PM

You have a 10 second car in hiding there... keep at it

First time ever on a dragstrip? Not too shabby.

DFW1LE · 07-09-2018, 06:57 PM

M6s are tough to launch even with tires and less power. You did great!

Drsagacity · 07-09-2018, 10:13 PM

Great job! What rwhp are you running?

laynlo15 · 07-10-2018, 10:45 AM

Made a pretty good improvement over your first run. Your gonna need slicks for sure to get even to mid 11's. good luck

Elite Engineering · 07-10-2018, 12:41 PM

Work on your 60' times! 2nd run looks much better, almost where the V6 is! Car should go 10's. Keep practicing. Seat time is the key:

nezoid · 07-10-2018, 05:00 PM

Thanks all for the support. I believe tires will be next, just a little hesitant on which direction on what to get. Either way I just want to get out there and enjoy it.

Thanks, don't know what it is pushing. I plan on putting it on a dyno after I get a proper tune.

I'd be happy with mid 11's. Looks like I'd need a cage of some sort for anything under 11.5.

I definitely would need practice to get respectable numbers. Takes me needing a procharger just to run with a Stock SS A8.

Your trap speed seems to put you in the range of a stock ZL1...It will be interesting to see where you dyno.

Good to know for bragging right I suppose. But honestly if I were to dyno right now, I'd expect to see about 550hp +/- 10hp with the current tune from what I have seen (can tunned) Procharged SS's do.

Right now I'm debating on a a drag wheel/tire setup or a tune from Jannetty. The cost looks to be similar.

I think that the tire route would give me better times at the strip, but Jannetty/Ted would provide more smiles daily... (1st World Problems).

Either way, I might as well toss it on a dyno for fun, even though I don't have a reference point.

With a set of axles and a pair of slicks, you should manage low 11’s without issue. Mine went 11.23@126 with the P1SC, slicks and axles. Needed the axles due to destroying the stock set.

There’s definitely enough power to go 10’s if we can ever get it to the ground.

Fraxum · 07-11-2018, 05:18 PM

OP great start! Low 1.9s 60's are possible on the stock runflats with seat time. So I would say 11.5s or better should be possible with that mph on stock tires. Unfortunately the M6 has a builtin bog as confirmed by Chevy. No solutions yet as far as I know. The pros at Atco told me as my car was leaving they noticed a hesitation and wondered where I learned to drive a manual. LOL

Awesome. Thanks for posting
Maybe hold off on tune until you do more mods like exhaust, pulley, fuel, etc
