So you reeled in a 13xmph car with a 590whp GT500? Whats your race weight 3300lbs?

I did not make the vid. Same reason there is no mention of e85 in the 5.0 No you hear 1, 2, even up then wot. He started to creep forward and my exhaust is loud so that slight crack in the throttle to keep pace sounded like I hit it. This was a 55-60 run as he has to keep it in 3rd because the trans is giving him hell on the 2-3 shift.

If hes having issues with the 2-3 and 3-4... i guarentee his shift pads are mangled on the 3-4 shift fork. Most common failure on the MT82. Also he needs to lose the stock clutch.

Yea he is trying to figure out what his options are for repairs. He thought the stock clutch took a **** on him when it first happened.

Just weird to me how a low 120ish mph trapping car ran with a 130 mph trapping car. He must have had a boost leak....
