Yeah too bad I was behind all the cluster **** that was going on in front of me to see the race.. Take that tranny to Jason at Texas Drivetrain Performance.. He will take care of it for a great price and he does very good work..

We had some fun out there before you showed up.. I put about 3 or more bus lenghts on a spayed Fox body stang, it was very ugly.. I ran that Black 04 Cobra and he pulled on me from the hit due to me spinning my street tires but I caught him and passed him by then let out of it.. Nick and I ran, It was a pretty good race he has it on video.. The first race between us I spun 2nd bad and he took off on me and I caught him and passed him by, but that is expected with me running the bottle.. The 2nd race we did was from a 3rd gear roll and I hooked up that time and from the vid it looked like I put about 3 cars on Nick.. He usually puts about 3 on me on motor so I would say thats about right. I hope Nick can post the vids up..

We'll see how it turns out. That C6 is fast no doubt, but I know I'd scoot past him from a higher punch. No traction=no bueno.


Tranny sounds like **** right now.

I had some of those same traction issues tonight as well with the street tires on.. 2nd useless, 3rd ok.. I think I am going to put the 3.73's back in.. I need some more top end of 4th.. 125mph isn't really good enough doing Frum Rolls with the 4.10's in.. With the 3.73's I can go over 130 pretty easy.. And I won't have to shift into 4th in the 1/8 mile on the bottle like I have to now..
