Well, I think I have figured out why my car has been trapping so low in the 1/4.

It's a good read, but it's not the reason your trapping so low. In fact that lean tip in would affect your ET more than your trap speed. Sorry Mike, try again.
I know you don't want to believe me, but you need some steeper gears.. Let me ask you this: if you top out 3rd or top out 4th, which do you think would give you a faster top speed. Even with a gear change...

With 3.55's and your size DR's you have a speed of 113mph at 6800rpm's in 3rd
With 4.10's and your size DR's you have a speed of 127mph at 6800rpms in 4th

Need I say more....

I read somewhere (I think MM&FF) that 3.90s are a really good gear for the terminators, 4.10s might be a bit steep for 500+rwhp, then again 3.90 and 4.10 aren't that far off at all.

I have been thinkin about 3.73s since i got the blower, the stock 3.27s suck
 
don't think so. We have new furniture arriving sometime on saturday. They won't give us a time for delivery. The furniture arrived last weekend but they couldn't get over here for a number of days. :notnice:
I would like to go to the track though.
