It was 59 degrees on the way to work so I figured would take the long way and see how fast I could run a 0-60. Not good! 1st pass a little too aggressive, all over the road and aborted. 2nd pass less aggressive and still got squirrley once WOT was achieved. Needless to say it will take a DR to achieve my goal in cool weather.

Wait until you get your torque converter on. Hooking up from a dead stop at WOT with stock tires is a thing of the past now!

Don't cha just love Horespower & Torque! :clap:

The car usually hooks well. I knew cooler temps would make more power and cool roads and tires are also a factor, but it felt like my old Mustang the way it was all over the road! It was nice though at the same time. LOL

I love being able to destroy the tires at will. With my Camaro I could light them up at anything under 30 mph and it was an automatic WITH drag radials. That was a fun car to drive.

Thats what it was like too! Rolled into and as it hit WOT it started hazing the tires, then up in smoke.

Everytime I roll into the throttle to WOT, the rear end slides to the left.
