good runs...definitley 12 second runs if you hadn't missed 4th....13.1 at only 101mph shows how much mph you lost by missing 4th

Maybe I'm missing it but how do you miss fourth gear? Nice runs though. O0

Hey man,


great runs, man you could use a dry shot and you should be set.

as far as missing 4th i have a technique i use and i never missed. its hard to explain but here we go.

Hold your right arm straight out with palms facing out. (thumb should be towards the ground) now wrap your hand around the shifter. now you have the hand position, then you pull straight back, and that should be a sure fire way of never missing 4th. i have been using this technique for 6 years and rarley missed 4th

2-3 is my hardest. Go figure.

That thing definantly has 12s in it, when are you going back?

it is an LS1, his dad has an almost identical one that is an LS2. He will be in the 12s, he is just gettting use to the torque converter and the new found power since the exhasut and cam work.

and i might try that next time KB, sounds like a good plan. i have never had trouble shifting into 4th before. :dunno:

wow, they paint the place! been a while since i've been out there....i'll be there friday night, curious to see how the new car does.

Kinda suprised that gto isn't trapping more especially for having a cam and the supporting mods...i'd imagine 109-112 atleast on motor.

nice video too, car looks great.
