Just a little history.....
Before my Shelby, I owned a nicely modded M6 3.73 11 5.0. I worked my way down to a 12.054.

Then came the issues. I bought a Barton bracket, then came the 1-2 shift lockout in the crappy MT-82 which only happened at the track under WOT. After research and disgust I bought the MGW (still no luck), motor mounts, JHR clutch line, dot3 to dot4, and lastly new tranny fluid. Nothing work! In 2012 I finally gave up and traded in for a 2012 GT500.
Back on Topic. After two year of owning this car I finally hit 11's last week,a tremendous milestone for me! Would have done it sooner but got married etc.... Car has been on back burner for the last year or so.
Now I'm back to the game ( thanks blown04svtcobra for the pulley and belt help cause no more issues after shift) and need some advice. Mods in sig, 3.55's, stock elbow, stock throttle body. On DR NT05R 19's ran 11.877 @ 125 mph with a 1.8 60'. I want to go faster! I'm thinking the 60' and traction is my enemy right now . Nitto DR helped and better then the stock tires but still had tire spin and not enough traction. So I bought some 26x10x15 MT slicks on 15x10 racestars. So should I go suspension, gears? Am I on the right track? Does my mph seem a little low? Just need a little guidance on my next move. Thanks
