[QUOTE="greg86, post: 11039179, member: 59346"] Never said the OP was a douche-bag, but many of his posts are misleading and contradictory. One minute he is having traction problems at 70mph and the next minute he is pulling out instantly in races from 55 mph in 2nd gear. Since you are backing him up can you explain that one to me? I don't understand the logic of dumping money into something to add power when you say you are having such traction problems already? You just told me you are getting a new RPM rear with 3.73s, why not a set of tires so you can use the power you are making now? Here are some of your older posts that contradict each other: I hear both of them down shift, so I drop it into second. The Cobra starts the beep sequence. After the 3rd beep, were off! I instantly start pulling on them. By 130 I had 10+ cars on them. It was hard to tell, but they were back there. First race - 55 roll I started out in second gear for this race. He started in 3rd. The RPM's were screaming at 5500. He beeps it off. On the third beep, I instantly pull out a cars length. By the top of 3rd, I'm out 1.5 cars.[B](I understand you being a lower gear would help in this situation, but what happened to not being able to get traction?)[/B] Thanks guys. It pulls hard lol. Those vids after the mods on were with TCS on because it will just roast the tires. Yeah, I'll have a 100 shot on by the end of the season.
