a dumb vs. question.
. As long as you don't miss a shift you would probably have him.

no transbrake his shifter is set up to have it...like a little push button deal thing.
he just has stall, shift kit, manual valve body all in a c4
when he told me he was gonna stomp me, i was like "pahhhleeeezzzz" but i guess it'll be closer than i thought. i thought i was gonna smoke him because of his street tires and im just set up better IMO.

its his car. i've already asked him why he'd beat me. he just says cause hes light and mroe powerful than i. i just disagreed, even if he did net more power than me...i feel i would be faster because of my set up. more gear, more hook, close to equal power.
this inquiry was to you guys as my own independent research.

thats what i was hoping you guys could tell me. lol
he was very vauge with his answer when i ask why, so i couldnt tell if he was kidding, skeptical or serious. i know he loves his fairlane so he gives it bias over other cars, but im the same way. everyone likes to think their car is the fastest thing on earth. lol.

Get a good launch and you will be gone. You're heads are going to limit you a little at the top end though.
If he uses those 4.10 gears and a locker- it would be fun to watch. Be sure to watch your clutch temp. during consecutive runs.

All signs are pointing to a win for you. Like I said though, a couple things here or there and he has a pretty great car out of the hole. I'd have to assume he is planning a gear and tire mod or else would not have thrown the stall in.
