That's a biiiig driver mod difference. The difference in trap speed is especially perplexing.

I just got an auto. No experience necessary! J/K, you'll get the hang of it I'm sure.

nice times. not bad. im guessing its "just" an n/a 4.6, instead of an s/c'd saleen........cuz the yellow ones the only one with an s/c isnt it......nice time though. not bad. if it was a coupe, it probably wouldve run faster wouldnt it......since conv's weigh more for all the structural integrity stuff they add.....
