thats kinda what im thinking, if i use the slicks on my stock rear and break it im screwed but if i break my spare rear i dont give a shit, im still torn, switching the rears around gets old quick

your car doesn't have enough power to break the trans, and the clutch should be just fine as long as you dump it instead of slipping it

like i said, go all out dawg

im pretty sure that my car has enough power to break the t-56, its not raw power that would kill it, but a 5k launch and no tire spin im sure could do it not likely but i dont wanna mess around too much with this car, im a pussy with this car for sure

I disagree, dead hooking from 6700rpm dumps with 430whp never caused any problems with mine. Same thing with 550whp. The trans is really stout compared to the rear/clutch.

Tranny problems usually stem from racing with improperly working hydraulics or a dragging clutch. Ie, grinding gears.

Yeah your clutch/tans won't break, it will go in this order your rear will grenade, oh well spare one anyways. U joints will snap, oh well not that expensive, quit bein a sissy :)

u should run about an 8.1 or 8.2......if u make it down the track.i dont see you getting into any 7's it would be near impossible.

12-06-2007, 11:20 AM
we will find out, my 99 goes 8.1 with the 4.10's on the street tires, and 8.7 with stock gears, so we will see what my 02 will do, im hoping not counting on it, i think the car is capable we will see if i am
