Re: Trans am track times

Yeah having the auto is really easy. The hardest part is gettin the thing to hook up which isnt really that hard either. Then its point it and try and push the gas pedal through the floor.

There was a guy there with LS1 GTO pretty much stock but with M6 and the best he got was a 13.9@103 but stayed at 14.@103 almost all his runs. He didnt like the half second difference either.

Drive it like you stole it next time...

I guarantee my shifts are as fast or faster than a standard 4-5 spd auto.

6,200 rpm powershifts that are flawless.

I've also tried 5,500 rpm shifts and up to 6,500 rpm. As well as using standard shifting (lifting off gas). 6,200 powershifts are the best of the bunch for this car.

There's something else missing in the middle...

Don't forget now, I have a Ford, bought new off the lot. Meaning it's devalued so much in the last 2 years I literally can't afford to sell it.

Just another reason owning a ford will ruin your life. By a kitten, not a Ford, it's much better.
