I thought of this after posting my last message. What gear and rpm do you reach by the 1/4 mile mark? Have you tried a run with the trans in "3" instead of Drive? Just wondering if holding a higher rpm in 3rd would help. Barring running into the rev limiter. Thanks,

BTW, I went to Memphis Motorsports Park's website and they have Sunday and Thursday "Tune & Test" night. From 6 to 10pm, it's $15 to race, $5 to watch. I think I'm gonna hafta go.
