Default new 6 speed p.b 9.60 @141.52 mph

well i didn't think it was possible but i was able to get a new best this weekend at bowling green. the car ran strong! Da was from what i heard worst case 2500 to 1700 with the clouds in place. had a decent head wind to go along with the air. the track i thought was pretty sticky!! at least stickier than what i am used to, lol!!!!

That is quite amazing.

I bet you're feet will feel better when you can get a scattershield.

I saw the run from the back Taner, and the car was just violent.

Your 1-2 shift was awesome to watch.

Taner you had the meanest launch at the event IMO.PSJ described it best,violent.Some of the guys that think they can bang gears should watch you make a pass.

A.R.E stroker, coupled to a Mcleod street twin, through the stock 'frozen' t56, out the moser full locker, held down by BMR everything.

Wade put me in the groove as he knows how and i popped it at 5k....smilin' lmao!!!

no pun intended, thanks for the jeans, lmmfao!!! without those i couldn't have run at all!

that was a 1.34 60', all 300 at one time, i don't need no stinking controller.
bob,

i have a stroud blanket around the trans for now, it provides some sense of security, i figure it will give me enuff time to unbuckle and jump clear of the car once it starts to tear thru the tranny blanket

next big event is this weekend at st.thomas, only 2 hours from home, problem is there is a low 9 sec. stang that is going to be there that i can't beat, damn! maybe A.R.E will come down with their 8 second monster to how him how it is done

Yes, no doubt about great driving! We heard your 3 to 4 powershift and knew it was going to be close! Taner lets lighten it up and put some squeeze in that thing and run some 8 sec stick passes Seriously, get a scattersheild on the tranny.
Anyways great pass for the crowd and congrats on the new 6-speed record!

thanks again! lighten it up! ha ha! never it is about as light as it is going to get unless i shed a few pounds of course. unfortunately that scattershield costs an arm and a leg, of course it would only cost me 2 legs if it were to ever let go, doh!
sled,

are you crazee 8's with a stick!!! then i would have to change the gear ratio, drop in the DFI, and pull a ton more weight out of the car! and run it down in louisiana where the air is as good as the beer is, in canda
