I truly enjoyed "every" second.  And goin balls-out at the drags 3X shows reliability.  Seen cars being towed after a couple runs, even some one-run wonders.  I found it helps to yell "Go Big V6 Go!" when I'm gettin on mine!

Yeah, no point in having fun in a car if it's not reliable lol.

Appears you are 3-0 in reaction time against opponents.  That's what matters to a driver, the rest is car.  The .444 is impressive.  I never figured the under 70 MPH finishes.

yeah that is where it would take it's sweet time to get faster & faster. Feels like I need to get the paddles out and start rowing lol
Anytime after 55+ if I let go off the throttle before 55 around 40 it would then take forever to regain the momentum.

This is my theory I need to dump the auto and go manual, and I bet I'll get a better time and a slightly faster speeds in the 1/4 mile.

We used to drag race a friend's 455 Trans Am (auto) back when this island had a track.  He changed from 4.11 to 4.88.  I had a feeling it wasn't a good idea.  Nothing like running out of motor before the finish line.
