Good luck at the track, lil bro! Just wanted to wish my brother(frcefed) some good luck at the track today. I hope you get your 10.xxx pass you've been working so hard for. Wish I could be there to cheer you on.

Well, went to the track today and promptly toasted the tranny
On the first pass car wouldn't do the 2-3 shift, so I had to let off and slow down to get her to shift. 13.0 pass
ON the second pass an hour later, did a good burnout....launch no shift on the 1-2 or the 2-3 had to slow down to get the car to move to the next gear...once in third it just flew up to 6500rpm and banged the limiter again....13.0@110. Other than that the car ran good, tune looked good...had to lean it out after the first pass because I was getting some rich KR...but the 2nd pass it all looked good. On the drive home if I floored it in 3rd it'd hit the limiter
Got some nice gas out there tho, VP MS-109 octane...7 bucks a gallon....pretty expensive fill up
HO well, Glad I ordered up that Rock ON! transmission last week....saw this coming a mile away.
Once again the march towards tens takes a ******* u turn

Yeah, i'll flush the lines and cooler too. I ordered the tranny on the 27th of last month so it should be here within a week or two. Guess I'll send out the converter to be freshened up as well...no need risking that.
I was the coolest looking 13 sec car out there, 28" ET Drags/ skinnies up front, rollbar, big turbo, fire jacket, helmet.... I should just left the street tires on her

Man kick me while I'm down Gary.....
Yeah I have bad luck...got even worse when I went turbo, but this was to be expected. This is my stock 4l60e that lasted through 2 s/c'er set ups and the pham kit...even tho that was a futile attempt and now this set up. I put 250+ passes on this thing without it missing a beat...so I got my money out of it.
The stage 4 rock on should last another 3-4 years before I send it back out.

I know Gary, just giving you ****.
Funny thing is usually the car goes unnoticed at the track. But today everyone wanted to take a looksee
But everyone was positive and gave great compliments....funny car runs slow everyone notices, car runs fast and no one comes around to look
I got the "is the car s/c'ed" because I still have the procharger plate still on my radiator cover, but I told em thats not coming off until this turbo set up beats the s/c'ers time.
