haven't got everything sorted out yet, trans is still not working right, it is out on the garage floor again! but i have a plan for that!!!!!

soft 1.51 60' 6.2@119.08mph. I had to jam it into gear in third, then it wouldn't take to 4th, lightly, after being rejected, i slammed it back in an ran it out at 9.7 @ 144mph

i can't wait to get humpty back together again! 4 trans breaks in one year! wtf!
