I may be mistaken but I don't think that car is a manual.... his left foot is off with the sound of the shift...

When I shift "like that" it is much more violent with my leg and I look like a ninja in the seat.

It sure did seem to die off in 5th gear once the artificial torque ran out.

Lol nope! Surprising though because the 2.97 gear set that came in some of the C6's drops the engine on its *** 3-4.

After some investigation I got CJ and FBO. Most likely full exhaust, and tune. Maybe E85 but who knows. CJ requires new tb and CAI so that too

Ouch, I sure hope that corvette really wasn't spraying. I don't think that would help your cause.

Everyone i have ran falls off bad during 3rd. I really stretch it out then. Likely something off with that v or it's very near stock.

Good runs.

So maybe I'm confused but I thought a Cobra Jet was a purpose built drag car that ran 8 or 9s that couldn't be tagged.
