You were driving an auto and if a manual would have put more power down and less et like "all of us" too, and you know it ;)

It's Ok Duane, I know the truth hurts. I'd get pretty defensive too ;):)

The street car will probably stay 5sp though, so we'll see what happens with it, even though its really tempting to put the auto in there...

Jaws may have to leave that 5spd in a bit longer and settle this age old debate once and for all. Put the 42R back on to level the power playing field, then go settle this like true internet warriorrs! SILV 08! :evil2::evil2:

Blah Blah Blah...

If I wasn;t about to part my mk3 out, I'd come with ignition problem fixed, run 30 psi down the track, win the trophy and drive it back home...

12's @ 1 bar reving to 5k.... = ?? @ 30 psi reving to seven. I know the answer, but unfortunatly, it wouldn't repeat it's past performance in texas. Lets just say it was less than one second from a high 9...
