not hating, u have a beautifal car but the devil is the details.

I have sticks in my Stang, and my Porsche, but I wanted the Vette for drag racing, and the autos plain haul ass with just a converter. They can't be beat on the street, plain and simple. Here in TX, there are no windy roads, and I don't road race at a track, so there is no point in having a clutch for a drag car... you sound more into going around turns and such, and I love that as well, but again, this is NOT my only car, it was purpose purchased to go fast in a straight line...

You barely won the first race over a car where you have a lot more displacement, more power and torque and weight within a couple of 100 lbs. It doesn't look like you have much to celebrate about, but rather something to worry about.
