Anyone in the Smyrna - Nashville, TN Area Doing Any Mods Soon?

[RAYSRT8]

Yeah. These came with 3:45 and folks out there that swapped to 3:73 are stating they wished they did the 4:10 or 4:33. I spent a lot of time debating and speaking with Ted Jannetty as well and I was told the 4:10 is an all around great gear for it. Guess I will find out...LOL

By the way I have a manual 6 Speed...

Janetty's seems like they know what they're doing. If they like the 4.10s I'd try it.

I'm not sure if the gear ratios in your tranny are the same as those in my Challenger but we have the same trans (Tremec TR6060).

I like the 3.92s in my car, but with the blower 1st is a bit tall. I was thinking a 3.73 might be better to get off the line, but who knows.

My tuner raised my revlimit a lot so now that I have a bit more to work with it's pretty good.

If I wasn't traveling this weekend I would love to come by and help turn some wrenches. I am hoping to get a TT kit in the next few months. I have to sell my old vette first though.

I am not sure either, but that is what Ted recommended, so I figure it's worth a shot... I am hoping to be ready for you at the track come May.. LOL

I appreciate that.. Hopefully your Vette will sell soon and if you need help later than look me up. Hopefully I will be done with all these parts by then LOL....

Have you taken yours down the track yet?

[RAYSRT8]

Not yet due to not having the dual pumps installed. I have been very cautious of not playing with it too harshly... I think after all is install I will be at least in the 11's... My only concern is getting too low because I do not want a roll cage in my daily driver...

[VcrusaderV]

This weather is killing me... I still get the car out though. Probably not the smartest thing to do.
Are any of the gear heads hanging out in your area? I was thinking of heading up to Nashville or any of the other towns near me to see if anyone was hanging out like the old days. There is nothing happening here in Clarksville. I hope that it picks up as it gets warmer. I figure if I can get a few cars into a "spot", then it will attract others and then maybe I will have something interesting to do.
Let me know if any of you guys need some help while turning wrenches.

With 639RWHP you should easily be in the 11s if you get traction. My buddy and I have the exact same build. I ran 12.8 at 118 on street tires, he ran 11.8 at 119 on drag radials. My 60 foot was 2.0x. His was 1.8x.

Needless to say, I now have DRs to try this upcoming year haha. I was trying to run low 12s on street tires, but I just don't have the skill to do it with this supercharger's torque. Anything over half throttle in 1st or 2nd and the tires go up in smoke.

Traction is key.

I'll let you know when I'm heading to Beech Bend and maybe you can go up with me and we can rum em' a few times. I plan to start hitting it in March when they open for their Saturday test n' tunes.

I don't see much hanging out. Doesn't mean we can't all start something though. I've met up with Garagelogic and his GT500 a time or two for lunch.

That sounds good.. Let me know when you are going. I would like to get mine to the track to try it out with all the work that has and is going into to it.

Absolutely we could get together.. That was the real purpose of me postin this thread. I wasn't looking for any free work.. I was really looking for folks to hang out with that have the same interest as I do.

Lets pick a spot/date and see if we can pull together a few folks to spend some time together talking about cars/looking at each others rides. I am game for it if you guys are. I am in Clarksville but I will drive anywhere.
