We have been testing the last few weeks for the big Supra event next week. Last time out we ran a 8.73@170. Yesterday I ran a [email protected], the record was 8.55@171 for a 6spd. This was the second pass off the trailer. I wanted to turn it up and run another pass but Chris wanted to load it up and save it for next week. I think there is a 8.40-42@175 in it.. We have over 20 passes on this Tilton clutch set up andd no issues so far. I don't want to powershift it because I'm afraid of breaking stuff, 1500 hp is hard enough on the stock drivetrain. Here is the Video, don't mind Chris' yelling at the end, he was excited.:D
