Oh, I forgot the best part. That was 11.90 in "drive". I let the car shift itself. With just a tune and gears I could get better times shifting myself. With 4.10 gears and the Kenne Bell it blows through 1st so fast that it gets a quicker time if you let it shift in drive. I bet that Chevy II guy would really be pissed if he knew I was in drive.

On the street it's rediculous. I dropped the hammer from 40 and it blew the tires away. I'm seriously getting some street slicks. Just don't mess with me on the track more than 2 out of 5 times . Still trying to figure out what makes it hook consistantly.

Nice. I read the article. I was following them for a while. Since I am running 4.10's and my tune is not optimized for low traction and I only have 8.5lbs of boost I would say my 11.90 would be more of an accomplishment. I've seen dragsters burp the throttle and go 11's so with more HP I could go lower in the 11's with stock tires. I feel my combo with street slicks should be good for mid 11's easy. It is nice to know how much I can throw at the Auto and not kill it though.

You got a stick? Having an auto on street tires makes all the difference in the world.
