okay it way faster than 14 secs
Now i'm gonna say BS!!!! Just because you have a stick doesn't make it that much faster.... Why do you think most race cars are autos?
 
What part of VA are you from? I can show you a 13 second heavy AWD auto jeep.

Power glide, Fast... and Faster..
 
I can drive both.
Same here. but Tire smoker.. you have yet to show proof of any of this, other than a vid I posted this week of some R/T's getting their A** handed to them by a modded Evo, and a lifted F250..

Most vehicles stock for stock, the manual is faster, a built auto will school a manual any time though. I don't like slushboxes personally but we can all agree this guy is a trolling tool.
 
I thought that at first to it would make since with the avatar writing. But the way that was typed made me think it was turbo, he always messes up his exclamation marks, lol.
It makes a lot of sense. I think I've seen that truck before, too. He's from MD, so perhaps he grew up in VA and knows the 757 area or something. He really does have a 318 5 speed that'll go mid 12's and I wouldn't be surprised if it had 290+whp. I'm really curious to see if it's him LOL if so that's fucking awesome.
 
my money is on turboblew. :jerkit::fight:

race cars use auto because of consistency...they will basically always shift at the same exact rpm...


and if i recall.....the manuals with an experienced drive is maybe only 2/10ths faster in the 1/4
 
They deserve a dak-dur t-shirt whoever it was! hahahahaha that's too funny.

The way I see it...if you can take a stock z06 and run 11's with it...the auto vs. manual debate just doesn't even matter. Also, aren't there Vipers in the sub 10 second range with the t56???

alot of guys that have the money to do it switch to an auto....powerglide i think...but they say it will eat 100 hp easy in drivetrain loss...but the perfect shifting is more than worth it for the track.

ok here one with the t-56. doing 8's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KUYW9zGJHQ

and a 7.99 pass with a t-56 with and IRS which many wont recommend...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ntUS7cIFPg
 
Ya, even someone using a t56 in a car that fast probably has it modified quite a bit to be able to do so...
 
wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a 5.2 dak since they go fast with very few mads?:stirthepo

i believe that car is with a stock t-56


i cant remeber exactly how a trannies power is rated...but i vaguely remember (and saldy cant find it to verify) is that the HP/TQ rating is in the final gear.


so say a TKO is 600HP/TQ...to actually use 600 HP/TQ with a .64 gear...thats pretty hard to do

That makes sense...for something that is only rated at 600hp there sure seems to be plenty of fast ass sports cars with probably 1000hp/tq or so that aren't having any issues. That 1000hp/tq is based on a 3rd gear pull not the 5th or 6th gear.
