Did this happen Wednesday? I'm going to be pissed if I didn't even realize what I saw.

Yep 18.5lbs in 3rd, 17.5lbs in 1st/2nd, left on the footbrake at about 7lbs at 3400rpms. Next time I'll be on a little more power and leaving on the transbrake to see if we can go faster.


Here's a pic of the slip...

Here's the only video I have, my buddy thought I was going to just make another 1/8th mill pass, but I ended up running it out the back door.

congratulations. 100k mile shortblock. youve gotta love the lsx and e85.

now that I think of it, I dont recall seeing any e85 combos with the usual issues, ie head lifting, cyl 7, etc

Stock rod bolts, try to shift at 6400, but hit the limiter at 6600 on the 1-2 shift on this pass. 100k miles on the shortblock also.
