Question about M6 vs. auto ET times
#21
Lol@1200 in a t400......guess you gonna run it with no converter.
A t56 faceplated with good internals is fine, mine doesn't even have viper shafts.
It's gonna take a good clutch no doubt. Ignition cut type shifting would never wouldn't lose boost. And you manhood would still be intact with a man pedal.

obviously I was talking about just the transmission. Even when you figure in the converter..... still cheaper. And I don't know this to be true, as I've never run a faceplated transmission..... but don't they wear out faster.... and make driving on the street a real chore?
I'll keep my t56 and muh doodads.

Sounds like you couldn't shift that fast before. Guys like you need autos i suppose
We can do all the styles of tracks. I bet i win more with my stick car. You're stuck with one.

Oh no.... don't get it twisted. I can shift as fast as anyone, was just always scared of killing the transmission.... hence no power shifting. The one time I got aggressive at the track....destroyed the worm gears. Guys like me.... that want to go fast....yes....automatic. And before you start the "can go as fast or faster with a stick" argument......you're dead wrong. There isn't a soul living that can out shift an automatic, and it remain intact. There's a reason the fast guys use 350s and the ever popular...tried and true 400.

Lol, I have faith in the manual that's for sure! But I'd give you the hit and keep mine on wastegate just to make it sorta fair!
#32
Ohhh hell...lol. Things have changed since the days of 11.30 @137.....its not the same car . But yea, you do that.... keep it on the gate and give me the hit..... would never see you. Same goes for liningup even, with you all in.

But a ignition cut faceplated t56 would hang right there with a auto. I have no turbo just a bolt on ls6 so you likely out power me by alot but the stick is far mire versitile and fun to drive.

I'll be happy with a 1.4 60 ft once I slap on the 28 inch slicks this fall.
1.52 spinning so far, stage 2 t56, monster 3, moser 12 bolt, tokico shocks. Nothing fancy but gets the job done for a car that sees the track a few times a year.

^This. I never broke my 10 bolt even at 600rwhp. But as soon as I swapped to a 9" and tried leaving off the 2 step, I snapped the pinion yoke. Replaced it with a billet yoke and set the 2 step to 4k slipping the clutch=multiple 1.5 sixty foots at 3800lbs. Blue99fbody has now been, what 8.06 with his 6 speed? Just takes more time and setup to get it right.

While that car is indeed fast, it's not exactly a garden variety 6 speed either. Not sure what it weighs, but I've seen the car in person (hard to imagine it being heavy) ....and it's a completely stripped down racecar that gets pushed to the burnout box. We're talking street cars here.

If anything I hoped you would swap out that little turbo. I know how that little turbo performs and it just doesn't make enough jams to hang. Once you get the rear sorted out and get a bigger turbo (or add another one) I can see the car going a good bit faster.
