automatic and you are gonna think you are in a different car. it may not feel faster after 60' and you will be surprised by the quicker et vs how it felt vs the 6 speed. Dunno TravASS setup at all so I didnt vote. Of course he gets the edge just because its a black Trans Am!!!!!!!!!!

I havn't drivin it in a month so it is going to feel fast either way.
Unfortunatly,I don't have good luck with beating black car's, but this one will be the exception!
Hopefully your car will be up and running by then,and maybe you can go and join us for a fun track day.

Not sure how fast it will "actually" run,but from the calculator's it say's I will run 8.90's at about 152mph. I predict low 9's,but as long as I hit a 9 I will be happy!
370 gear's and 28in. tire's!

Hunters cars has tons of potential...I really think he will eventually see 8s....9.5s for sure by the next MCE track day. If you guys are racing et+ reaction time...I think the edge is clearly in TravASS favor..........et + r/t or just et racing?

thats why i asked about shakedown passes.....auto is gonna have his engine loaded more than the stick..will take more fuel to make it live. Even with a pu$$y/jerry like 1.5x 60'....if he doesnt spin any.....i think the T/a is gonna be rocked by a wind gust at the 1/8 mark.
TravASS...you didnt buy Mcasanos old setup and not tell anybody did you??!!!

I ain't sceered. I was just finishing up working on my pump so I can make a few pennie's tommorrow! Anyway, I hope to have a day to myself with a few people that can go and help me,so I can get it dialed in a little bit. It's my understanding we are racing just for ET's or whoever get's to the end 1st. Kinda like Pink's,but I am keeping my car,even if I lose!Ha,Ha!

I am adding more injector's also to take care of the fuel problem.It's on the car now to make sure everything fit's. I can't wait to have a high and low boost setting's. Hell,maybe I will run Travazz on the low boost 1st. and then see he want's any of the high boost!!!
