Chirped 3rd again...

Always amuses me when I do that... It was almost a powershift but I try not to hammer on the car that bad.

I can't wait for the Injen CAI, then I will hit the track.

John --

Are you on LS2? Just asking, since you seem to be into the F-body LS1. Nice numbers, but what's up with A3 in your signature? Did you change the the transmission?

I've been chirping 3rd a bunch lately, but I think it because I'm still on the 'greasy' EL-42's. I'm really not even trying when I do it.

What i really like to do is when I'm next to some kid at a light. I usually take off real easy, and get 1/2 way through the intersection, and then just nail it and light them up from a roll.

Have you put your CAI on? If so, any chance you've taken it to the track?

I have not put the Injen CAI into the 6MT and taken it to the track, but I will hopefully in the next month.

I've been racing the red 98 Formula in my avatar, just went 9.61@144.67mph with it.
