First race with the TH400
Just thought I'd post a vid of my first race with the 400. I lost (was running on motor) to a buddy of mine who was spraying a 175 shot w/ an MS3 cam (he transbraked me too, lol), but I still felt really great about it because it's a night and day difference from being able to hook on the streets. With the M6 I would blow through 1st and 2nd before I would have traction on the streets. I can't wait to try it out with the transbrake and off the bottle
The only thing that does suck, is I seem to run out of gear pretty fast. I left the 4.10s I had from before in, so I'm curious to see where I'll cross the traps at when I go to the track.

ahhhhhh i so remember those days...... when the T56 would take all the massive RWHP I had just produced on the dyno the previous day and wisp it up into clutch smoke or tire smoke or a combo of both...
then i happened upon my TH400, lose 50RWHP but pick up 4 tenths in ET and yank the wheels off the ground....
god bless the TH400 first gear ratio of 2.48:1....

How about your next vid you use Down with the Sickness as the intro. We all know modding cars in an uncurable sickness. I have spent countless dollars on treatment, lol H/C etc etc etc etc etc.

I like it a lot. I've had it for over 3yrs now and it drives good on the streets. It seems to be getting smaller and smaller now a days though since everybody around here is starting to get bigger cams then me, lol. I think I'll stick with LG though when I do decide to upgrade.

That's funny I had never noticed the dash. But that car is like a beat up 94 camaro that has worse problems than the dash, lol. I actually didn't even know anybody had recorded that race. Someone had asked me about it the other day and told me they had seen it online so I looked for it on our local board and there it was.
