    Thansk, yeah, 122mph should be mid-11's or better. Gotta work on suspension/traction now

    Re: BadAss SRT-Z Update!!!

    Wish I had video up there for that last run... EVERYONES eyes were on that thing as it danced down the track! I bet more than a few people wanted to see another run out of the Z!

    BTW, what was with the FWD guys driving around the box and backing into it?? Didn't want to get the skins too wet?

    LOL! I never had to steer a car that much!

    Not sure about that, maybe they drove around and wanted to do a dry hop on radaials but backed up too far? Many rookies out yesterday!

    Tough decisions when you know it's going to be the last pass. Hmm an 11 on low boost or a deep 11 on high boost? I'll take my chances on the high boost please.

    Yes it is bad for times, but there is a certain smile factor about hearing the tires screaming "KILL ME" thru 3 gears.

    LOL, it was more like me thinking 'dont kill me' as it kept pulling towards the left wall! A smarter driver might have let out of it

    You don't realize how close to the wall you were!
    I think driving through it may have been the best bet..
    Dude in the tower liked your car a bunch.
    Aside from the "really can haul the mail" comment, when you tripped the lights "Wow 122mph.. And using ALL of the lane too!".


    Damn good day! Had a little daydream about Nova girl too..

    Re: BadAss SRT-Z Update!!!

    i wonder why its easy to miss gears with that trans. i rarely miss a gear with my 523 though i grind second sometimes but it still goes in. 3rd is my favorite. i can pound that gear easily. the only trouble ive ever had was doing an accidental 3rd to 2nd gearshifts and that was my fault. cost me a cyl head rebuild. oh well.

    nice runs though.

    Maybe JT has some kind of seizure, right as he makes the shift, that nobody knows about?

    Might have been just shifting faster than the trans wanted..

    Re: BadAss SRT-Z Update!!!

    thats possible but ive always been able to ram the shifts super fast in my trans. and it has 130k on it.

    i wonder if the brass shift fork pads have anything to do with it. the rings that the shift fork pads ride in, they are coupled mechanically to the shaft, right? they spin at shaft speed and shove the synchro onto the gear and speed it up? am i thinking correctly about the operation? its been a while since i had one of these trannies apart.

    Re: BadAss SRT-Z Update!!!

    Part of the function of the shift fork pad is to drag on that groove to slow the geartrain down, but I wouldnt think brass would be any less drag than acetal (delrin) plastic?

    Re: BadAss SRT-Z Update!!!

    Delrin is pretty slippery stuff. The CF would have to be either looked up or determined experimentally between the different materials, however the fluid being used in the tranny also has to be taken in to account...at the proper temp!

    I have an issue of "crunching" 2nd when shifting really fast sometimes, if that makes any sense. It doesn't grind, but it definatly isn't happy about going in to gear....and it's a pretty fresh build too.

    Re: BadAss SRT-Z Update!!!

    I'm guessing that covered in Redline MTL that brass or Delrin are both gonna be pretty low µ in that situation

    When I cheezed 3rd Saturday I misse dit and it made horrible grinding noises. When I was had issues last fall it was just locked out, like punching a wall... wierd.
