Made some passes with the new trans

At the Street tire shootout @ Mid Michigan Motorplex in Stanton, MI, DA was about 3000 feet and there was a pretty good gusty headwind.
Sixty foots ranged from 1.479 (a new personal best) to 1.497.
1/8ths were 7.047 to 7.081 and 96.26 to 95.97mph
1/4ers were 11.138 to 11.179 and 120.72 to 120.20mph

Car is sixtying better which is all of 1st gear and the 1-2 shift so I gained there. And the 2-3 shift is ''bam'' like it should be.
Looking forward to some good cool fall weather and my 10 second time slip.

What gear and tire are you running? Nice times, I hope to be out soon with my setup but the heat is a killer right now. Later

Thanks

I'm running 4.10s with Hoosier 275-60x15 Drag Radials which are right at 28 inches tall.

It's a fully built 4l60e I bought from a guy on here.

Yeah, on a stingy Mustang dyno (shows less power than any of the other area Mustang dynos) it puts 400hp to the wheels with the TC unlocked with only 330lbft of torque.

Thanks, what I like is that it consistantly hits those numbers with the Hoosier DRs and the new trans.
