Keep with it Steve. If it is an issue with the rpm's cutting out right at shift point, it will correct itself as the tcu adapts.

Sorry I don't know how to do videos. I'm lucky to figure out how to put a picture on here. Right now were waiting for a track cleanup so just more down time. As bad as my car is shifting and the easy launch I think it's got a lot left in it for sure. There a 6 second outlaw corvette here that ran a 1.12 60ft on the back tires and 5.40 1/8th after shutting down at the 330ft mark.

Nice times with a car that's not 100%! The heads seem to be major.

10.92 at 129 but they're saying we need a cage under 11.50. That's the whole reason we rent the track out. Seems like its adapting more each pass. Weighed in at 4455 so she's a porker still lol
