Default Took the stang out for a few passes

Took it out Friday to local TNT here in Tulsa ok

Well come to find out tranny was low on fluid it wouldn't make the 2-3 wot shift do I added some made pass it was better but not right

Added some more and short shifted the 2-3 shift. Clicked the prostick @6500 she pulled all the way to limiter @7500 I backed off it made the shift got back in it and still somehow managed low 11's So out comes the 4l60 and it's getting rebuilt. And one more chance


1.63
7.21@97.08
11:33@120.5

255/60/15 mt dr radial. 20psi
8.8 4:10's mini spool 31 spline Carb needs some more idle tunning as it was loaded up and had stumble off idle Not bad for having 3 passes on car and combo

Man, since I found out the stings can be 2800 pounds with driver, I have been tempted to find a 85/86 coupe and dump the 6.0 out of the RS in there, see how fast it will go 500 pounds light and with a automatic!
