Was NLS used on any of the shifts?

I'm still a bit baffled by the trap speed.

Ethanol, tuned exceptionally and running a K04+ and he's trapping less than a similarly modded stock turbo car

This is why I asked if NLS was omitted because it would somewhat play into the equation

Trap is because I'm getting through the quarter a little faster so not as much time to build speed due to slicks. I nls 3-4 and you can hear it on the video I will try and get to tonight. I'm also in 4 th gear at the top so I'm not finishing in 3rd which cuts a little off to. Adjusted for altitude I ran a 12.74. If I wouldn't have lost time spinning in 1st it may have been better yet.

I know the 4.45 is strong and a great trans for road course but I can't wait to get a 4.05 in. I'm not a big fan of the gearing and living with it in traffic. Wish the 3.82 was strong enough to take the abuse.

That may be a stretch. Wish I could pay what you do to roadrace as the cars setup better for that.

Most average drivers in a new mustang or camaro have issues laying down 12's due to getting off the line clean. A lot of those owners go by the numbers that a pro driver from road and track got on a test, so they think their car can do the same.
