Traction isn't your friend. From a stop, the more you want to win, the worse it is. Next time, you need to start from a roll. Just go side by side and have him say go and get the jump. You'll get your bus lengths then.

What are your shift rpms set for? Is it still pulling hard when it gets to the shift?

I think I want my motor back.

You don't need it if you'd get cracking.

I know it. But my daily driver Tahoe sure needs a 6L. It would make my commute more enjoyable, thats for sure.

Hey - who are you to talk?

Sorry, but you might have to fight me for this motor! I have a nice little 4.8L I might be able to let go of. I think you have all the motor you need. Yeah, it's still pulling hard. The shift points are pretty conservative. I can't remember what Allen said they were set at, but the new tune coming in has them set about 200-300rpms higher. I think that's about all it's going to handle with these injectors. He would have had no chance at all if I wouldn't have given him the hit. I need to find out for sure what they're set at tomorrow.

WillPewter2000 -The original race was for $100, head up, he launches in two wheel drive. So, my cam blew my money making chances for me(he knew something was up). If we would have run the original race, it would have really been ugly!!! Damn this cam. This guy has a car that pulls the wheels, so he knows his way around an engine. I couldn't ring him, but I was anxious to see what it could do.
