5 speed I wanted one sooo bad.
Can't wait to see your truck once the Eaton's on. I don't think we've met yet. My truck's been in Florida since Aug 8 gettin some "super secret" mods so I havent been out in a while. I had to sign a couple noncompete agreements so I can't really talk about it although I would love to. I picked up a pair of ET Streets last week. We've tried to get them on bigbadboy's truck ever since- darn rain. Do you run at Ware Shoals much? I haven't had a chance to get out there but I have heard it hooks a ton better. Have you been to Carolina Dragway "House of Hook"? Now that place hooks. LOL We'll probably try to organize another event next year. We held the Battle of the Truck dot coms back in July. Not a great turnout (too short notice) but it was a blast. We had Fords, Chevy's, Dodge's and even a Jet Bike Maybe we can do it again. Hope to meet you soon.
Yeah from the amount of spinning i do down the track, i think the eaton will make a huge difference. But yeah i been trying to get back down to greer these last couple months but i've had to work EVERY thursday night since like may, but i go to ware shoals about once a month now, i try to go after every mod but haven't been able to. But yeah i hope to see ur truck in action, r you hoping to be the fastest N/A hemi out there?? But we need to find out how much longer greer's opened up so i can make sure to get a thursday night off so i can meet up with ya'll guys.

I heard that, my truck seems like it would do a lot better in the quarter than it would in the 8th. The 5-speeds in these truck pull like crazy from 70-100. I heard if you run a 9.6 in the 1/8th it's close to a 15 flat in the quarter, but the 5-speeds pull 14.7's. So hopefully i could break a 13 on the juice. But yeah greer gets through the lines a HELL of a lot faster than ware shoals. Ware shoals tries to be too professional or something, if someone says they saw an ant at the far end of the track the take 45 minutes to go check it out
