foolmoon, you will LOVE the motor mount, it is incredible what it does.

I'm going to the track today, awesome weather out!! But I am only watching lol

I will see if there are any other HHR SS at the track but I doubt it.

I lost to an early 2000's trans am with a V8 by a fender at the track....he said "no way" when i asked to run against him again...I feel I would have beaten him if it was on the street(illegal) because of my issues with the traction

Its the 'vega" of this decade. The rain is holding off, so I'm heading to the track.. Motor mount never made it in, but thats OK. I can now see what the bags do on their own. Maybe worth a 1/10th

Only got in five runs tonight before rain set in. but I handed three different Mustangs my taillights to look at. 9.01 was the average tonight.

Drag bags took a tenth or so off 60'. They were all in the very low 2.1's
I think the mount is gonna get me another tenth.


Btw, 2.1 barks the tires just a bit. There is no way I can get wot without slicks. I can never go wot until almost out of second.

Best run of the night. It was also my last run. I think I was short-shifting all night. I ran out 1st gear more than I usually would and got this. EDIT: I'm the right lane

Any of you 5-sp guys have any tips on what rpms to shift at in each gear? I can throw those #s on my RPD and shift when it tells me to
