She even made me clean up mess. Had a 3/4 diet pepsi in the front cup holder and punched her at 60 to get around a truck. She pushed me and the soda back into our seats and the soda sloped out some.

At this rate she is going to need some new rear soles soon.

This is what I think of #230
Ok, go ahead, rub it in. Keep talking and I'm getting a tune.

But, wait. If yours is breaking them lose that easily and a stock L99 (with no problems) won't spin em' like that it makes me ask, What excactly did they do? My dealer started the TAC before but as it turns out, they have to have the car Tuesday. (Not for a 'fix' because they told me this yesterday) But to do testing. Which is fine I guess. Nohting they can do to it though.


Oh, exept fix my tachometer that quit working lastnite.

But your car is not broke in yet. You need to get to around 2200-2500 miles first before trying stuff like that. And get an oil change.

Nice
And if you like the 60mph punch, try a 49mph punch. The cut off for 2nd gear is right around 53mph or so.
I've found that the right around 50mph (or just under 50mph) my car screams and throws me back in the seat like crazy when I nail the gas. But up around 55 - 60 mph, it doesn't hit anywhere near as hard.

So the next time your out try this.
Do a 45mph punch
Do a 49 mph punch
Do a 52 mph punch
Do a 55 mph punch. - much slower acceleration

You'll find where your 2nd gear drop down cut off is. In my car is right around 53 mph or so. So just under 53mph is the best roll speed in my car. That's good to know if someone just happens to want to play (45-50mph is the spot to go from).

Good info. I will try that myself.
