So, with my Circle D 3C I'm good? Never roll raced before. I don't plan on it.

Did your convertor break too?

It's not that rare, my buddy shafted his 6R80 in Mexico this weekend. Not sure what broke, but it's likely one of the usual suspects (convertor, pump, intermediate shaft).

No, just needed to better my 60' times as they were killing my ET. Procharger and a Circle D converter is such a bad ass combo for increased performance!

Oh no doubt your 60 ft times will drop a good bit as long as u have good tires.

Well put my convertor in yesterday and all seems good with the trans.Sounded like the support for the stator was broke.Still can't believe the stock convertor broke at 1200 miles with a car probably around 675 whp.Well will get to test it out at the private track day this friday.

Good, now you have no excuse when I beat you with my stick.....

I think the stall is going to put Tommy out of the range of the stick guys. The one procharged car with over 900 to the wheels should be in the 9s but that is yet to be seen.

Should be some decent competition.

As long as I am able to drive my car home from the track I am happy. I am looking forward to Friday.

Yeah but my car is setup and geared for 1/2 mile. I have no idea what it runs in the 1/4. I'll find out Friday. I also won't sit here and lie and say I'm the best racer either. More about the fun than anything else :cheers:
