The strut which holds the low/reverse band was bent, and the band was always touching the drum, not giving us much stall. So the car was basically muscling itself off the launch, not getting to use the stall.:wtf: We think it was done with the original setup. We're also adding some goodies to the trans:shifty:, and no, it's not a transbrake:naughty:. They're way to hard on parts for my taste. We've got a 2.77/1.55 gearset coming. I think the originals are 2.45/something, I think. Go hard for the 1/8th, and still give us the topend. Sounded like the best of both worlds............. to me
