Default Dig and roll races - Z28 vs Foxbody

Posted this in the Street Racing section but thought I'd throw it up here, as well, because I know some people tend to avoid that forum.

Enjoy!

What exactly did you have in mind? Gears don't really get much steeper than what I have.

Why do you say that? I missed one shift out of about 24 shifts that day, and it was only the second time I've ever missed a shift since getting this car all setup. I do fine.

The 05/06 goat trannies suck for top end. You probably would've pulled him up top if you would've had the stock tranny in there. Big gap between 3rd and 4th in the MN12.

Good runs none the less. I've done the 3rd to 2nd once and my dad was in the car lol. Was embarassed as ****.

Those cars were pretty well matched up. It's always more fun when it's a drivers race. You can't help but to race over and over cause it could be a different outcome everytime

Yeah, that 3rd to 4th gap kills me sometimes. I often think about selling this tranny and going back to a stocker (built, of course) just to see how that changes things at the track. Not to mention it would help me out traction-wise quite a bit. I track the car less than I had originally planned when I put the tranny in and I get a lot more roll races that I had ever thought, so it almost makes sense at this point to swap it back for now.
