Default Some Weekend Fun! Vid!

Went out this weekend thought my car was feeling a little better, nope not really, she was being inconsistant like she was Thursday night at a local meet, im thinking now its something ignition, ie wires or plugs, so im gona check all the plugs tomorrow night... for those that dont know here are my mods as of now

Yank ST3600 Torque Converter
Pacesetter Long Tube Headers, TSP ORY, 3" Cut-Out
Flowmaster Catback
SLP Blackwing Lid, K&N , with smooth bellows
Taylor Racing Wires
Poly Motor and Tranny Mount(s)
BMR Subframe Connectors
Free Mods except Ported TB



1st car to race was a 1999 Green Trans-am (Bolt-On LS1 6 Speed) raced twice and the first race he got out on me, but the 2nd time we both hit it at the same time...great race!

2nd car was a 2001 Black Trans-Am (Bolt-on LS1 6 speed) raced a few times, sometimes my car wasnt pulling as she should be or we would be going at my cars good spot and it would be even or we would go at his good spot and he would get out on me, damn 2.73's! the car pulls great though!

3rd Race was a 2000 Corvette, Auto, Stock except some cutting of the Exhaust mufflers. My car felt Like complete ****! when I raced him both times, u can hear my car bog and pop a bit, Both Trans-Ams Pull on the Corvette all the time, they are good friends, so u can see how my car was not running at full potential.

4th race was an 03 Cobra, My car felt pretty good...

was a fun night however check out the vid!!

You have a 3600 stall with no cam and 2.73 gears? Does it have the "slip" real bad during normal driving?
