Took My 06 Vortec Max To The Strip Today.

Raced Guy · April 27, 2008

I took my 06 Vortec Max 4wd to the quarter mile today for the second time. I was very happy with the times it ran. It was 45 deg. overcast and a slight tail wind, pretty much optimal conditions. The first time i ran it last year i had 22s on and went 15.2 @ 89 bone stock. Today with the stock 17s on and a cheap ebay air intake my best run was a 14.62 @ 93 and a few 14.7s @ 92. As stated the truck is 100% stock 24,000 miles with only an ebay intake. It was sport compact day and seeing the look on some of the guys faces that got beat by a stock truck was priceless.

Best Pass- 14.62@93

60ft - 2.172

1/8mile- 9.44 @ 75.33mph

1320ft - 14.62 @ 93 mph

The temp really helped the air was really good. Yesterday there were snow flurrys and slightly colder, and just a few days ago it was 78 deg, the midwest is enough to drive you crazy. Thanks for compliments. I also had a good run with an srt-10 ram, i know he was a good bit faster but traciton wasnt on his side. He went a 13.9 @ 103 to my 14.7 @ 92. It was still pretty cool, id say he didnt get around me till about the 800ft mark, gotta love the 4x4. My freind took 2 vids on his i phone i wil try to get them up.

Very nice. Don't forget to post pics or scanned photo of your slip. That'll make it official.

Good time. Good old GM power can make a tank scoot.

Cool, post the slips.

Sorry man it's hard to believe, especially with a bone stock 4x4.

I understand it may be hard to believe but the times are real and i will verify them. I am working on getting the vid from my friend that he took on his iphone and hope to have it up by the end of the day.

If that s stock, you should get a tune. That s a good time. My 07 V max with 20 s only ran a 15.5 /15.7 although it was nearly 100 degrees that day. Wonder how much the temp affected my times?

damn, maybe i need to get a new truck... while i was in western PA, my truck ran a 16.9 but it was at night and it was pretty humid. havent ran a 1/4 back here in va since there isnt anything close enough.
