Hey Jesse,

I need a clutch!! slipping 1st, 2nd 3rd, 4th and 5th....LOL...had to hit 5th at top end (4:11 rear) ....Was slipping when I jumped into it on PGA before we got to the track.

1st pass......12.047 at 118.84....60'... 2.003 shitty tree (think I am getting old)...LOL

this was 1st test pass, came out at real easy 1200 rpm and shifted at 5500, went down hill from there..by 4th pass car would not move in 3rd gear...LOL

I am very happy with the turbo. Crowd went crazy with my to the start line burn out and the blowout valve going off after.

Let me know your ideas on the clutch setup.

BTW son went 12.61 at 113

Gary
-------------------------------------------

BTW the only thing this car has is the turbo and 4.11. EVERYTHING is stock including stock cats! He has a Z06 clutch but as you can see its not holding for sh*t. Will post new results with better clutch and if he decides to get a rear so he can drop it at higher rev and improve the short time. Will be 11's all day long!

Awesome! Jesse you aren't making this any easier on me! Waiting to get enough money to do this is killing me. Makes me want to say f*#! it! and charge it all . But I'm still waiting.

PurEvl nice numbers so far. Your car sounds absolutely sick in that one video... I'd like to see what the turbo sounds like on your car now

I'd kill to see an STS car in person and go for a ride! Although that might make it worse for me and I'll REALLY go out and buy one then.
