So is it good brakes or abnormal for me to be able to hold it at 2600 and not spin the tires?
Under normal very hard braking it will burn the tires off but if i hold the brake and put it in Neutral and rev the engine the brake will drop all the way and then I can hold the tires from spinning.
Can someone else please try this with a TT3000 and tell me what it does for you?

isnt that bad for your trans? are you talking stomp the break, drop to neutral, holding the break, rev the engine to 3000? i guess, and put it into gear again? all from a stop? sounds like a good way to mess stuff up but i guess if you can convince someone with a built 60 then maybe, or maybe i just dont get what your saying i dont have a yank though so im no use

I woudn't keep tryin the neutral/brake/rev thing very much bro thats gonna mess stuff up fast.
Your holding power on that stall has alot to do with how much brake power you ahve as well as your power you make and how well your tires can hold the road.Its not as simple as just saying i got a 3000 stall.
If you can't get your brakes and tires to hold the power then it won't stall that high.
I have a TT2600 i can give it brake to the floor and rev it to 2600 like it says but a blip more gas and it smokes them down like crazy.
I'm sure you could try the neutral/throw it into gear method but i woudn't recommend it...at least not if you want your tranny to last.
