    Thanks Mike!

    You called me the other day asking for a follow up and asking if everything was good and if I was happy. I must say I am very happy with the results! The tune makes the drive better than stock, Idle doesn't hang like it did when it was stock. Very refined tune. I made it out to PRP on April 29th and due to rain only got 3 passes. 1st run ran a 12.2 @ 108 missing 4th gear, 2nd pass ran a 12.0 @ 108 missing 4th gear, and 3rd pass (only clean pass I made) I went 11.90 @ 117. Car has 11.7s easy in it, had a full tank of gas and blower was hot on these passes. Overall I am very happy and the car runs great! Once I practice grabbing 4th and raise the rpms on the launch I will be right where I wanted to be at mid 11s!

    I definitely left a lot on the table, slipping the clutch at 3k rpm shifting slow so I didn't miss 4th again. 1.78 60ft, I need to up the rpms on the launch and maybe some more tire pressure, and powershift away. That 12.0 pass would have been my quickest of the day but I played with 4th gear for what felt like minutes lol.

    60ft could be better and so could 1/4 mile times but hey not bad for my first time ever racing that car, gives me something to work for next time out!

    Nah its a Pro 5.0. I am just not used to the gates of the T-56 compared to my T-45. I think the T-45 is a lot easier to shift compared to the T-56.

    Yes T56's are a pain to shift.

    Yea, t56 takes getting used to, in stock form, it's quite stiff so to speak. Next time you change the trainy fluid, throw some gm syncromesh (think thats what its called), makes a world of difference. Put it in my 03 few years back, def helps loosen it up some.
