HOLY thread bump Batman!


Update is that hopefully the OP invested in the 'driver mod' and learned to properly launch his A/T.
wait: isn't that some sort of oxymoron?

12 seconds sounds REALLY slow.... Now I know our cars lack a little in the low end, but honestly our cars can probably get to 90mph+ in 12 seconds! Something sounds wrong? Maybe just your timer? LOL

You're granny shifting when you should be double-clutching.
