got a new best for the zf, lost to a fox body on this round that's my first loss:D. and he didn't get me by as much as I thought. reaction time improved to .2xx range by the end of the night but gears kept grinding im going to new synthetic fluid see if that helps.

I reach 60 feet before I shift I think to, because I ground third bad one round.and still had a really good 60 for my setup. take off in second its was 67 degrees and it was bucking off the line and my pressure guage quit working so I guessed on that. launches weren't as good as last time.

Good going, even though you lost the race. :thumb: Did you ever install a short throw shifter or is that still on your list of to-dos?

Not yet. Gonna make my own short throw.
After this race I deleted the rubber bushing out of my shifter.
stiffens it up you feel the gears and gates better. And I shortened the shifter itself which shortened the throw more than I thought. Shortened it about an inch and a half in length and leaned it back to get it away from the dash. Its rattley with no bushing but feels a million times better.
