Good Stuff Fredo! Gotta ask though, I didn't see anything going wrong (besides you losing) in these videos. You said something went wrong at the track?

Depending on your parameters set... Drive at a steady pace above 30 mph (or whatever u have set) leave the car in gear(above the rpm u have set) , hit the gas pedal to 100% throttle position, and engage the clutch, If your nlts is working the car will not rev
You can also do it without driving. Just have to set the load to 0 and the speed to 0. His switch wasn't working. Same with Alfredo but his was more of a intermittent.

That makes sense. I was wondering why people were pulling so hard on him. I was like "WTF his turbo should be throwing him down the track"

true story. I ran about a half second slower than back east. I did however make up for that by doing 100 octane, cams and other bolt ons. Best I ran in the black VIII was 11.79 @ 114. Ironically the same as Alans white rs.

I was granny shifting all night Friday. My shifter cable was in pieces so I couldn't shift hard at all.

then me and them would have been a good run unless they would have lined up with me on the first run. i went 12.3 @110mph lock out in 4th so i rolled through it. The vid says it all after that run. lock out in at every gear above 6k @ Wot. figured you guys would enjoy it as much as i did, it was fun that night though.
