Yeah :roll2: spools are so bad on the street. 99% of the time you never know the car even has it in there. Just steer clear of the rain, lol, then it will let you know it’s there.

Spools are not that bad, I had one in my old Mustang years ago and loved it… I seriously watched that whole damn video and did not see one damn time! Frustrating!

11.1 @ 123 is probably close enough. Just pretend that’s what the scoreboard was saying.

Went low 11’s, got a new best 330’ but had to left off. It wasn’t shifting as easy as normal, or as fast as I would like to. The catch point was getting high again, and dragging. I didn’t notice at 1st, I lowered it at the track. It helped some, but I’m not sure how much more meat is left on this clutch. I’m sure it will last this year, I should pull and check it out before driving it to the shootout.  
I guess its good going to spool for how much I drive the car, and as hard as I do. And keeping the car so simple. Should save about 32.8 #s, too so thats cool.
