Ewww I hope your joking bout the auto. Row them gears faster, you'll get it lol. Even though that time is damn taunting, congrats.

Yes we were there both days ( CMDR )

I wanted to make at least one more race this year with CMDR but it just never happened. I am kinda glad I missed it though, my bro-in-law Buck Wing blew up his motor on the 67 Belvedere in the burnout box on Saturday. :cuss: That car was running mid 10's this year...what a shame...

People who are serious about drag racing use automatics.
Jake get a good auto transmission and it'll be faster and
much more consistant.

I have a hesitation in between shifts driving me nuts !!!
It slows down my run. Did 119.18 mph but with a 12.27 et.

No I know auto are MUCH more consistant and better for high hp cars but I think it takes the fun out of a street car, but thats just me, I love shifting. Whatever floats your boat.

powershifting will get rid of that hesitation too. nice mph Ken, you got 11's in that car easily.

thats what all the now auto guys said and they now say they should have done it before. auto in a 300hp car is one thing, in a 600hp car i think it will be more fun. the car will be as fast as it should be too.

Nah I understand, it's just my opinion. Good luck, it'll be interesting to see the difference between the two with the same hp.
