Default SS4000 Driving impressions

I just got my car back yesterday. Had heads/cam and other boltons installed. This stall is only slightly more unfriendly to drive around than my midwest 3000 2.5str. It might have something to do with the magic that Jayson at MTI does with tuning but I love it. I dont regret going with this high of a stall at all!!
I cant wait till I get the ET Streets on it and take a ride. Right now it is on 315 radials and I lost traction and the *** end kicks sideways when punching it anywhere below 40mph. Screw the 3600. GO FOR THE BIG ONE

I'll say you run 11.40's next time at the track.

I street drove my SS4000 for almost a year I loved it, now she's a track only car.
