Default New time for my car + breakage

Only got to make one pass, straight off the highway. Broke my ring gear second pass.

Bogged HORRIBLY off the line, 4k launch. Tried to launch next pass @ 6k and sheared half the teeth off the ring gear.

This is also my daily driven street car. Will beef up the rear, throw some 3.90s in it and have another go. MPH is already there for mid 10s, just need to shave .4-.5 off the 60' by not bogging Wish I had an auto!

Nice times! I too am starting to realize that a stalled auto is the way to go with these heavy cars. Launching is tricky and the hit on the drive train just destroys things.

Be thankful you bought an M6 car. The A6 is horrable in the camaros. We have done quite a few 4L80e packages for the 2010/2011 camaros with great success.

MPH is big and the car surely has a lot of ET left in it

good luck getting the car back together and moving into the 10's

The A6's just need a tune, mine is a blast to drive with a supercharger, and torque converter.
