Hey sorry guys, the only person I know that can convert it for me lives about an hour away and my schedule hasent exactly been free this past week. I promise I will get it up as soon as I get a chance, and I do believe i got your burnout but i will have to check.
Again sorry for the delay
-Mark

thanks for the update

Is it wrong that I'm jealous? Haha, nice run man, pretty amazing. I figured out a way for you to make some extra green for your car. Hold a "How to shift your T56" class...you'll be a millionaire!!!

Also, didn't you have a pass where you pulled the wheels off the line and also after grabbing 2nd? Did you get that on tape at all? If so...can I see?

I'll be your first student as long as you bring me for a ride in your car to see how it's done. I'd like to ride in a 9 second car. Ridden in a few 11 second cars.

Nice run! I'm suprised it et'd that well considering how much it spun.

Do you lift on the shifts or powershift?

Thanks for the link Jim. To me, it sounds like he lifts. But I suppose I could be wrong.

He's a puss, he lifts.

Even though on the 9.44 run I was impressed when Taner powershifted 4th.

Hmmmm, maybe that's why the transmission didn't like it.

You two are a riot. I was pretty sure he lifted between shifts. Sounded like it at least.
