Wow. Did he miss every shift? I'm shocked at that awful run by the GTO.

Anyways, back on topic, very nice, great car. Good Luck on 9's!

Look at the guys 60ft. I kinda felt sorry for the guy. We pulled around and he said im not pulling beside you again. This was midnight drags at our local track close to spirngfield missouri. To race your car must have exhaust with mufflers and drag radials too race there are no slicks are allowed. Car must be street leagal and have insurance card. The car still has stock k member and airbags. car weighs around 3600lbs without me in it.

Yea, it's terrible and so is his ET, but it's his trap speed that BLOWS MY MIND! How the HELL did he trap 84 mph? He could have a 20 second 60 foot time and it won't affect his mph. That is just mindboggling. Stock cars trap that in the 1/8!

it looked like the GTO either had 0 traction, or forgot that he was at a drag strip and was thinking he was leaving a red light on the way to walmart or something.

the TA is fast, but that doesnt mean that the GTO would have that bad of a run. lol.

btw, good **** OP

the gto probably blew the tires off. seemed like every car that made decent power and wasnt on a drag radial didnt hook up too well out of the hole.

How long have you had the tranmission, how many miles, how many passes on it, and did you spray through the shifts? Was it just me or did it rev weird going into 3rd @ around 9 sec's on the video?

Props to Performabuilt, in all honesty I underestimated you guys.
This kind of changes things for me both in a good and bad way. lol
Being completely honest again... I'm sick of the 4l60e's, more @ the supposed built transmissions that I've used, took a crap after no more than 5 passes. Worst part is that I have an almost stock LS1 with a small shot of N20. On motor I doubt it'd make anything close to 320RWHP, so what can I expect if I make any power?
Im looking into the th400's now, but cant stand the thought of no OD. Sux My car doesn't see much miles anyway's to be too conserend about RPMs with the 400, but wouldn't it be cooler to have a 10sec or even better a 9sec car running a 60e?
Long story short, if I could get a 4l60e that would take a beating like that and not give out on me, I'd really consider giving the 60e's another shot. I hardley drive my car but when I do 85% of the time it's wide open throttle. But man would it suck to be let down again. lol Did you guys put a little more love into his tranny? lol If guys did LMK how to get ahold of one of those.
And my apoligies go out to Performabuilt for doubting, good job guys. I think I might be giving you guys a call sometime soon.
And awesome car, run's hard.

There are more than a few that have done it. We have one that is shooting for 8.XX this year. A few weeks ago it went 9.2x at Real Street Drags at Union Grove Wisconsin. I know this Friday they had another event up there. I'll have to see how it did and report back. It is a full weight and full suspension C5. Here is an old photo of the car from two years ago running in the 9's.



Here is another that ran 9.6x full weight and suspension.


And yet another that ran 9.7x full weight and suspension.

I know the trans has been out there about 1-1/2 years its out of warranty. And last I ask though he can say for him self over 250 track passes plus street driving.
We put lots of love (TLC) into every trans we build. and stand behind them.

Thanks Frank at PerformaBuilt
