    Had he done any tranny upgrades, or was he still running his old unit?

    Tranny in the GM went boom.

    Guess that's what mega-HP will do to you. But he'll be fixed and back at it real soon.

    Be afraid, Jake; very afraid...

    I know how that feels, after upgrading several other things in the car, first time out transmission lost third.
    I know Pops will get her right back again.

    The Grand Marquis did the 10.88. Lost second gear on her! the second pass as I had to back off to get to shift. That pass wass 11.93. The third pas had no second at all. It slowed down to 13.19 @ 78 mph just off the low gear launch. The interesting part is the 60 foot time was 1.76. A lot more time to shave off. It was a built transmission Rex. This is the first time the car was run with the 110 octane tune in her. I will have to wait till spring to try again! It was like driving a fighter jet!

    .1776 reaction time
    1.7604 60 foot
    4.6704 330 foot
    6.6322 594 feet
    7.0697 1000 foot
    10.8828 1/4 mile
    129.77 MPH

    Bob she has a lot more left in her when you look at the sixty foot time. I posted the numbers off the time slip above. It was a thrill ride all the way!
