Now that doesn't mean you can "granny shift", you need clean/just on the verge of limiter rapid lift shifts......but the launch is still vastly more important to et'ing a car __________________ 04 Cobra Vert: 2.76 BF, Magnflow catted x, Stinger cb, JLT rai, AFCO dual h/e, BF irs brace, MM flsc, Hilton boost overlay, HPP tune, 461/493 SAE oh but the memories: 06 Z06 machine silver 2LZ 02 EB Z06 H/C 3.90 gears 01 Bullitt 98 Vorteched Cobra 4.10 gears 96 GT
