Chevyss Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 That Monte looks good. I'm hoping that mine will do that good when I finally get it to the track. Thanks for sharing. Quote
dbreese Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Man that Monte RIPS!!! Very nice pass. I really like Cordova. They where the host track for Drag Week 07. Really nice people and the track was well prepped. The air must have been really good. I may have missed it but what is your engine/rear/suspension combo? David Quote
7tonemonte Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Extremely nice!! Great looking Monte, and it runs awesome! Thanks for sharing, Id love to see more as well Quote

wallaby Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 I felt sorry for the Buick in that video. That thing probably had a 455 under the hood, but it looked as if it was in reverse. Quote

CrazyDavey Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 i would like to post more vids but i do it the hard way, my pc buddy suspose to show me how to do it faster 496 ci. bbc 400 turbo 4:11 rear gear okay...now you have to share how you did that in a quarter mile!!! Nice fast Monte..... Quote
TommyP Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 wow.. That's exactly how my Monte looks going down the track. Then my alarm goes off Quote
Andy's Auto Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 That thing hooks. Nothing the a good match of engine size, cam, convertor, and sticky tires. Now ignore the rollbar, spray the snot out of and walk away with a 10 second quarter mile.LOl,. Andy Quote
TN454Monte Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Woosh...Sweet car and some awesome runs ...Congrats!! Quote

O i do have the bottle on the car with 200 hp jets ....... could only use it in the 1/8 mile,,,i go through the 1/4 traps at 6700 rpm . shifting at 6500. what a awesome ride,, cant belive it myself,,,, took me 20 years to get there..and the $$$ ,,,,,holy crap but it sure is fun!!!! that is my son in the 2002 camaro,,he has a very nice ride and with a better tune i tell him his car will go in the high 11 second range.
