Nope. She doesn't want to learn a manual transmission.
She's got a 74 camaro with a 350 in it. I don't know about racing that thing though. It would need work.
Ahhh. Gotcha.
Maybe one day she will want to learn manual. It's extremely easy on the new S197's. A Cake clutch, and super easy shifts.

I agree completely. That was exactly my impression when I bought and drove the car home. Didn't even stall it once and I kinda expected to a few times. Very easy driver.
I'm not even planning on replacing the stock shifter on the car unless I start missing shifts. While I have missed one here or there it's a rare thing and I don't blame the shifter for it. I like how smooth it is.
Good runs for the conditions, Grabber. Thats weird that your GF's car started running rich like that. Better get that checked out and fixed asap. Any ideas about what is causing it?
If I were you I would take that damn supercharger off and just run with bolt ons. It would be faster without it anyway.
I kid, I kid!

Dude, I actually thought about that, ROFL.
My friend with Full bolt-ons is now cocky as ****, and wants to run her car on the street again. Even though last time bus lengths were in order. LOL
We are going to a dyno day a couple weeks out to see where her car sits. Then I will reload her tune, and see if that changes anything.

I am pretty sure I can find you a Terminator with my mods, or maybe a Ported Blower that will run with ya, and is a good driver. Unlike me, lol.
Def. too bad I am too far away. I'd love to run our cars, and have a few beers after. Or maybe a case or two

with your GT being a 13.1@104 with that DA.. i suspect i'd be a close to it's speed as my car sits now.. with your car's broken tune.. I figured something was wrong if your stock cobra was staying even with it when the GT should have had 50+rwhp edge on it..
now that sounds about right and makes sense.. it is running in stock termi times..
I hate it when it's busy.. too bad you couldn't get more runs in, had the same issue when i went with my M&H drag radials.. only got 3 runs in and it wasn't enough to get used to doing the burnout/launch with them..

I've been there, man. I actually did end up taking the procharger off of my Z28. I honestly got sick of messing with it, burning up trannys, tuning, etc. I let that entire D1 kit go for $1500, replaced the trans and sold the car. Ahh, miss that car....regrets, regrets, lol.
Hopefully it'll lean out when you reload the tune, or it may just need a little tweeking. I doubt its anything serious.

Well, little more to it than that. Gearing, low end TQ, etc. Not getting into it again.

Didn't know stock Terminators ran low 13's and trapped 104-105?

We still enjoyed the day at the track. I am going back in November or so, and shooting for 11's. We'll see.
