Awsome to see this car in person. Pretty basic set up too.

Paula and greg are about as nice as they come. Cant wait to see an entire 1/4 mile pass. Should go NINES easily.

9 second pass will be no problem. all they need to do is keep it straight down the track.

No we aren't what I say I have I have. We had friends there that will tell you what pill was in. The dyno showed less then what the pill is suppose to be. That was on one kit the dry b/c of the problems with the dry it only has a 100 shot. The wet is the big boy and was NOT used b/c it wouldnt come down. The dry is at WOT the wet is on a button.

We do run more n20 than a 100 the motor is set up for 300 but the funny thing is a few passes before that i sprayed a 150 wet dead in the whole tire came up about 4 feet went 1.38 60ft, then on the pass it drug the bumper that was going to be a record pass I set it up with the dry that put less than 100 to the wheels should have been around a 125BHP, we where going to leave with the dry and turn the wet on at the 80ft but it didnt happen like that

4L60E with probuilt tranny parts. Holding pretty strong for a 4L60. Had some trouble last week due to the PY 3600 Yank taking a dump. Greg decided to pull it and go through it change the clutches, which usually it was the 3rd gear clutch pack that always had trouble but they looked dang good. Replaced seal flushed and cleaned make sure no metal in it from the converter. Put the TCI 4000 back in. Oh yeah, good on the track not so for a DD. But I can deal with it for what she does at the track.

why don't you like the TCI 4000 on the street for DD use? what kind of gears you running? tighten those front shocks up a bit next time and keep it off the bumper

It was the first night out with them we never got a chance to adjust them after that run LOL. We still have to play around with them.
The TCI is loose but I like it. Its fun to drive on the street. Just got to remember not to stall leaving a red light if some one starts tempting me. It might scare the other cars if they saw a car crossing the intersection on the rear wheels. Although it would make a good video.

I run a TCI 3800 with a 2.7 str, i'm used to it. I'd like to know what a "tight" converter feels like..

Anyways are you guys open to building up my tranny, mine is stock with a shift kit. don't know if I should do the rear first or the trans first.
