I think I was racing you at the time in my neon. When I heard your turbo spool you took off like a rocket.

yea i leave it in drive…

i ran ugoslow the one night and tried shifting it myself and i bounced off the limiter like crazy and i shifted it right as i goosed it b/c it takes a second for it to grab in 2nd and it still hit the limiter and wouldnt let me shift into 2nd til i let off the gas…so i figured rather than hitting the limiter at the track and running shit times id let the DRIVE magic happen lol…how much time could i shave from shifting myself tho?

EDIT: i figured it wasnt too good to shift it yourself ive heard stories of people killing their tranny’s…thanks LZ :tup:

When you shift it by hand…The line line pressure isn’t up between gear shifts and it burns out the clutches…I changed the tranny fluid once or twice a year btw…thats why the tranny still shifts good and you know what the mileage is…

> Yup, I have the intake figured out I think. And yeah, it sucks being that close to 11’s, but… knowing i’m going 120, only pulling best of 1.9’s, and not WOT shifting, I am pretty confident I will get there this year 🙂 In just 3 trips to the track, I have gone from 12.9 - 12.0. What I really need to do is toss my quaife in there!

Wow, 120 is flying with that ET. I ran 11.79 @ 114mph! Nice big end power. Gotta make it next time. I want to run at lancaster a few times to sort out my new combo. If I break, at least I’m close to home.

I’ve never had a tranny problem, but all my trannys are built for drag racing.  
I guess it all comes down to when you shift it.  
I’ve never driven anything with a rev limiter but my grand am, and I even shifter that right before the rev limiter, Tho i did hit it 3 times on 37runs at lancaster.

Maybe the turbo 350s and glides are different that the newer transmissions.

A phone call with that info would have been nice 😛 Been driving myself crazy wondering if I was going to get that thing. If I offer to pay off the whole loan that seal the deal (tax refund in and I can swing it)? If not I’m gonna make a move with the money somewhere else, just got to find that somewhere else, I’m tired of the best I can achieve and get to work is the 13’s.
