I don't know bro. I think we're gonna be duking it out . I have some things on you but you have some things on me.

On the old setup I was still going through the traps in 2nd gear but I was just barely slipping by at about 6700rpm.

I think my problem is going to be this soft bottom end. The 1/4mile is all about getting up to speed as quickly as possible and right now it's not doing that. 1st gear actually feels pretty weak even form a 45mph drop. I may have to play with the gearing but time will tell. I want to see some runs form you first. I don't wanna try and intrude on your limelight homie. I'll let you bask for awhile before I come crashing onto stage. LOL
