I don't think the shifting was that bad guys. Obviously enough to get the job done. Car sounds and looks great! Congrats. What exhaust setup are you running?

My mods are in sig.
Results were about what I expected. With the LT1, it was reasonably close through 3rd, once I hit 4th he really started pulling away until we let out at 120, he was a car, car and a half ahead.
I pulled on the Cobra then we kind of leveled out on the top end... those things pull hard up top.

Nice kills you should be very happy with your car.
