Now that was a ride. Did you hear how short of a time he was in each gear???? Man, that's a power to weight ratio if I ever heard of one. Sign me up............oh, and in that car not mine. His would be much more fun Very Happy

Yeah, he has some very steep final gearing. It was most def. also a sequencial gear box (yummy).

<-- wonders what sort of sequencial manual tranny I could find for our cars.

Dan,

I actualy hadn't though of you when I said Dan, I had meant z28redline. But we could do a trip up to BC in May, and run at Knox Hill. Very Happy

750 lbs plus whatever motor you want. In this case its a 3.0 with 400 HP

That was a fun ride, could have swown it was sped up but the video time matches the actual run

I tell you, if we could get the funding, me and cheezx would do it for sure. It's fun to watch his shift lift in video. He's got decent reaction time.

z28redline

He made it up that hill faster than I make it down my driveway.

Damn.

yup, rear suspension mounted on the tranny is the best way to go. and make sure to opt for the magnesium case. Cool

now if only I had access to CNC equipment for cheap...

Dewey I'm surprised you've never gone out for the bible creek hillclimb in Oregon.
