I do agree with your comments about making the perfect, consistent shift being rewarding, and if the car is going to be drag raced a bunch, I am sure I would not want to "no lift" all the time. I was more thinking a max bonsai type run to see what you could get out of the car. If you are using drag radials, and bogging the car a bit, a higher RPM launch would seem to help, but I am sure you knew that. My fear is the car hooking and going, and something breaking at that point. Best of luck, and I am looking forward to seeing how you do. |

What I'm trying to say is that I've tried...off track...just to see how it did and it rejected every time under wide open throttle. Someone trying at the track would not be a good time

If you want to add your times to the 1/4 mile fast list it's up now for 1 LEs

i guess i'm just ignorant of the 1/4, but what is "no lift shifting?" and the programming being mentioned?

Leaving you foot on the gas while shifting. Essentially saving you a little bit of time on the 1/4mile

I had >200 drag strip passes on a 96 Corvette with the ZF6 trans. No lift shifted for almost all of em. Never had an issue, car never gave any trouble. YMMV.

Well you and power shift any manual car for example, that simply shifting but never letting off the gas. You'll hear the engine rev up between shifts.
Congrats on the ET. In the fall take out the extra weight and you'll probably go low 12.8's. I went 13.15 stock in my auto, but I also was able to cut a 1.95.

My guess is the 1LE rear may plant better than an SS without the 1LE package.

As for SS vs 1LE I think it's the different combination of the 3.91's, stickier tires and size. My 2012 SS seemed to bog without really aggressive throttle control. But thats what you get with 3.45's and tall tires on heavy wheels. |
