Nope, I dropped it into D before we hit and it didnt downshift any farther. Im quite sure I would have pulled him from a lower roll. I got ahold of him yesterday on a local forum and as it turns out it broke something coming home from texas yesterday. So the rematch wont happen for a bit.

That might explain a few things. My shift points are all different because of the tuning but I'm pretty sure I have a decent amount of 2nd gear left at 70.
If you mod your car further, I would just urge you to store all your parts, like manifolds, exhaust pipes, cats, in protective packaging, so you can put it back to stock if you should decide to sell it.
To give you an idea, the NADA clean retail value on an 02 SS with 60K miles is $13,000. The NADA value for the 35th SS like yours (also with 60K miles) is $23,700. That's all collector's value which as you know, would be predicated on original parts.

Just want to add to the chick scion reference. All chicks that drive scions are *****.
Disclaimer: I have no ex gf with a scion. This is simply the tests that have been conducted with the girls in my area that drive them and 9 out of 10 take dick like a champ. So if you see a girl in a scion chances are shell give it up with very little effort

Being that your still stock, with stock tune. 70mph is kind of a bad spot, shouldve dropped down to 60. Your car then shouldve downshifted because mine does at 60, but still struggles at 70 even with my mods. My car is un-tuned by the way, so with a tune it may be a different story.
Any car can be made fast, hell ive had an RSX stay right next to me. Had the same problem happen with the car not downshifting on that run, didnt help that the guy was a pretty good driver but hey, **** happens on the street.
