Who spun in the first run? I'm guessing the balt, but the second run was really close. Good runs.

We shall see. First thing is first, he needs to get some bolt ons so I can throw it on the lift.

Cobalt spun the first one, 2nd run was like a 60 roll.

Why? E85 makes more power, and around here it's pretty reliable and somewhat plentiful.

The car in the video has all boltons and the 50:50 E85/93 mix, and runs pretty well. He doesn't like to NLS it all the time since it tears up those trannies.

Another local guy blew one doing it bone stock and a few others have had issues I believe. Luck of the draw, just like 10 bolts.

And on NLS note.

I'm at 54k and my tranny doesn't appreciate it more then once a run now.

I didn't realize it would ever b a problem but after a hard run now, I can't get her into gear if I NLS it. No prob if I. Let off and shift quick, but trans no rikey NLS much anymore :-(
