I can't believe your car just rips the 225s in first gear. That's just amazing. When I punch it in first, I don't spin in the slightest. Of course, I'm about 40hp shy here at 7200ft... I'm still envious. Derek Scion xB 5-spd Previous: 2000 Silver Frost SVT Please share the road with cyclists.

I'm very happy to see somebody finally getting that 3L to put out the times we all hoped that it would. You're less than .5 seconds away from the F/I guys...watch out wavrdr! That was a very slow LS1 that you raced. I've run that slow before...but only because I was still spinning in 3rd gear in my "slushbox". 2000 WS6 Convertible A4 13.11 @ 107.5 with a lid, Ram Air and LTs Gone:95 Mystique LS Young America edition V6, MTX 15.6 @ 91

The 2.5L could roast them in 1st and a little into 2nd if I really tried. The 3L flat out boils them if you breathe on the pedal too hard. Even in 2nd gear the tires normally break free a bit as you pull past 5000rpm. If you actually try (say going from cruise to WOT) you can roast them at will in 2nd too. Heck if I really try I can spin them all the way through 3rd but that's not getting me anywhere though. Well except needing new tires. It's "not" spinning them that I want. 2000 SVT #674 13.47 @ 102 - All Motor! It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.

What RPM are you shifting at for each gear? Where can I find this robotic arm and leg combo to install in my car? Did you get this on video perhaps?
