Do I see the front brakes heated up on that on the WS6 in the last vid as if he was trying to brake boost an N/A car?

I'm sure you could drive your car like a 100% badass you're first time banging gears...as for the 11 second car comment, I don't know alot about machs so Id have to ask him.

5ish? he might have been off the gas by then though. I just watched all the vids and they work for me.

The clutch pedal is twice as high as I'm used to and a different release point. My knee is literally touching my elbow as I lift off of it. I need to figure a way to get it adjusted down. As for 11s it's possible. I don't have slicks so that's a hell no as far as with the mods I have.

5 seems like alot to me. everytime i have run a bolt-on 6 speed it has been mostly a door to door drivers race and the times i have lost it was at most by a car maybe a car and a half. idk tho i guess that just goes to show anything can happen on the street!!

I can verify this. It was way higher than mine goes for sure. I would hate to have it where his is.

I didn't really let off, i left off when he did...

He got a pretty good jump on the 25 roll, mine delays for a sec while it downshifts to 1st since it was in second, then hammers down, my friend with a gto manually shifts his because of the that. You gotta remember something, auto's aren't that great on rolls without a good stall, especially considering the stock shift extensions and stall, isnt the greatest, it does a lot better on digs because I get traction and a decent jump, I'll be getting my yank 3600 here soon, and some DR's and suspension parts, with the new stall my shift extensions will be A LOT better therefore keeping me in my cars powerband.

There's definitely nothing wrong with my car, I expected to lose by 3+ cars on rolls racing sean.

It dynos around 325-330 before the ported tb, with bolt ons, around 310 stock, on a dynojet.

Trav I have a hard time believing you're door to door with m6's on rolls with similar mods, unless they can't drive, sean can definitely drive.

im the guy in the red stock ls1. about 5 minutes after i raced that lt1 i realized i had a vacuum line blown off my booster and my brakes went out. I did a 40 roll with that full exhaust T/A and kept up right with him, but barely beat or lost to that lt1..

AND i ran my car at the track with the D/R's and ran a 14.1 at 99 with a 2.17 60'..... it normally runs 13.6's consistant with skreet tires.

so somethings f'ed up with my car.
