and the fastest ive had mine in 5th is 155 and you might as well forget goin much faster in a short amount of time with 6th. the auto lt1 climbed like crazy after 130, it wouldn't stop till the rev limiter shut it down. im sure it would beat my ss now from a high speed punch

Seems like a pretty potent car you ran across.

I have to say though, that's a strange combo you have there..... T76, but a stock clutch and street radials. Surprised both are still alive with the power your car must be making with a turbo.

LSx cars are always good runs, worthy competitors and there are a ton of fast ones in my parts. Much mutual respect between us and them in my neck of the woods.

Clutch this winter. The tires save the clutch right now... Car has 8800 miles on it. Any real traction would = clutch death immediately.
