I think you'd like it a lot more than you'd think. I can understand wanting to stay with a stick though

I have not. Biggest drawback for me right now is cost.

Peanut trick flow TW 170 that are just cleaned up a bit

Once we get up on the tune a bit which is still super safe - I bet I'll find a few mph .

Not that pass it pulled the front tire that's how I knew it was on. A pass .

It's spun maybe 3 times and that was cuz the track went to . It slipped going into third that's when I knew the clutch was starting to give up

Saying that we went the same mph and my cars been to - myrtle beach , maple grove PA , to nicks which is 80 miles each way .

Your car works a bit better with the auto which goes without saying . Your car 1/8 miles faster . Something that I am sure working on my tune up would fix .

What I'm saying is . I'm just breaking your balls I have no issue that my car is slower. Eventually I do plan to try and go faster . [emoji14][emoji14][emoji14]

So the roll bar isn't in yet? I mean wtf is taking so long?

If it were me it would be a 10 point tucked in the corners, it is your life afterall if you want to make a 150mph blast at the track. If you are properly restrained in your seat and you are involved in an accident what is the realistic expectation to hit your head on the A pillar or a roll bar in that vicinity? I think there is a much higher likelyhood that you will hit your head on the Main hoop by the B pillar, this makes the 8 vs 10 pt debate a moot point in my opinion.

As for as King of the street car, I will just leave this here:

I can't argue this logic at all. I completely agree.

So I will give aeromotive this ... They sent me a brand new pump in the package .

I left a nasty gram on there FB page earlier based more on the lack of communication then the product . They gave me a contact . I called and he was gone for the day but his secretary was told to take my info if I called and he was gone and he'd call me first thing in the am .
