If i had a clutch streets would be good but with an auto its just stall it up let it go, unloads the tyres hits the blocks on the rear, since lowering unloads the tyres very easy... with a clutch you can ride it out..my best time on a sp3000 is 13.80. Chris check this....priced for a good launch...lol.. http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?t=423

I'll share a technique that seems to work for me very well. I'm not sure if it will work for others, but...
...when I grab the shifter and do a 2-3 shift, the shifter jams under a heavy load. So what I've started doing is instead of grabbing the shifter, I simply put my hand behind it, and push up fast with a very slight hint of force towards the right, and the shifter just slides in there beautifuly. Not sure if it will work for anyone else, but it seems to work for me very well, with it very rarely jamming. |

Then why are people always bitching of 2-3rd jamming?
Coz the gearbox is notchy and not too smooth to begin with.
