I was realllllly iffy going from a DIG because i knew i would have to play catchup. I had no problem 2 weeks ago going from a roll.. But he has given me a ride in the truck and it launches HARD!

First up is his sexy exhaust note to show he dont mess around

Good runs.. and i cant wait to mod this thing

Nice kills!

That is a good running TBSS. That M3 looked like he messed up on the shift, but a kill is a kill.

[syP]

yea he missed third then got right back into it.


We are both (me and m3) going to the track april 4th, so we will settle this once and for all ;)

Wow, something is wrong with your buddy's SS. No offense to your car, but it should take you easily especially on the street. My TBSS had the same mods and ran consistent 12.9's. It launched the same on the street as the track. I'm not saying that every car/truck is going to run the same with similar mods but it shouldn't be that far off.

With that tranny and stall he should be seeing 60's in the very low 1.8's. No way is a stock G8 going to get that especially on the street. He is definately not getting what he should out of those mods. Start modding your 8 and its going to be embarassing.

[fiveoh]

Nice kills! I thought those tbss where faster than that.

[d_toll]

Nice kills man, keep it up. Look forward to seeing more.

BTW, Did you ever get the clutch to work in the balt?

[syP]

It always worked.. just couldnt powershift it.. it was a bully stage 4 problem.

Apparently all i had to do was call them and they would send me out a new one. But i didnt feel like taking out the clutch because it takes a really long time.

It was still a great clutch for a DD car.

[d_toll]

Yeah, sorry about that i had no idea that there was an issue with it when i sold it to ya. It was just laying in the garage and i had already traded the car off. My appologies for that. Anyway, hope to see more vids like there was on the GP & SS sites.
