I am sure the 6sp is a hairy ride and you have 400lbs on us. But with an extra 700rwhp, I'd think you would run more than only .5 quicker than us.
Dont get me wrong... I am not trying to say anything negative at all.
Its a killer engine for sure. I just feel your vehicle set-up still could be tweeked to get a little more from the whole combo.
And by the way... thats more than impressive for stock axles and trans for sure ! I'd love to see the old stock Camaro 10bolt hold up to a 5,000rpm trans brake launch.

I understand what your saying, if this was a drag car only, there would be a lot of changes. As I stated, this motor has a powerband from 6800-9500, anything under that, you could outrun it in a diesel. One of my old Supras had a completely stock engine with a T72 turbo and a 90 shot of nos, it went 9.81@153 and I drove it home. The auto car went 7.7 last wed, with a stock rear end and axles also. I'm not a auto guy, so I prefer to drive anything with a stick, plus it's more exciting.
Jeff, it's going to a fun event. Woon has over 70+ passes in his car vs my 7 passes in this car.
