It's not much looser(is that a word? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> ) than my Vig3200 was. But man, from a slow roll especially - is just hurts the tires. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I loved the Vig, but this TC is going to be a lot of fun. I'm taking it to the track sometime this week and I'll post results.

What's the shift extension on that puppy? What STR did you get? Yeah, let us know how it goes at the track, I want to compare. Just waiting for my drags to get here to see where I am at. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
