11 seconds missing 2nd gear very impressive for a daily driver,fantastic looking classic i bet you could of run in the mid 10's if you hadn't missed on 2nd
love the car questan did u have trobel giting track from wheal spin or did u kinda have trobel goin into second hapends to me all the time... my z28 just bernt 4th gear and the rear end went pulled a mile at 170 at 5500 with a tt 300zx and looked in my rear windo and he was way back there my z28 has 4.11 with a .63 5th gear and 27 in tires on the back
This Camaro its amazing! I love it! I've got a question though, I can clearly tell that was Chevy in the the left lane, it looks like a '56 Model. Is it?
I heard if you have a bad shift on a manual tranny with a supercharger, you blow your engine. I didn't really believe it at first and this video proved it false. Also, what is the cubic inches of that beast?
@shawnkrause871 You can blow it if it isn't built, or if you don't have a rev limiter. A lot of people with these big Carb'd motors don't even use limiters, therefore, they are just askin to blow it up. Just depends on the build setup.
yeah a built auto can shift alot better than you. also at the same spot every time, perfect for drag and being constant but issnt any where near as much fun as banging gears. if i was competitively drag racing auto deff, but other wise 6 gears all the way
They have special race transmissions where you simply pull a lever down with little time, this guys just not that serious because once you put that in you can't daily drive it.
You do realize that you can shift without a clutch... Next time you hope in a car listen real close youll hear it hit the rpm to switch gears then while its doing that your loseing rpm.
ask any real mechanic, shifting without the clutch is not a good idea. thats why there's a clutch, especially if the car is a drag car. my th-400 tranny shifts very quick and firm. so firm that i squeel the tires for about 50 feet after it shifts into second.
@eroi53 Why such a dumb comment...Seriously? W.T.F
I have a M-21 in my 55, so i guess i shouldn't race it huh? geeee I guess i shouldnt be winning races against slush box cars huh. Oh wait i do! weird!!!
@eroi53 11 months late lol. Its my street car,I drive most days.I dont like wasting a car in the garage just for drags only with a auto high stall an 4:11.Thats why I got 5 speed in it with 4:11 gotta mean top speed does 140 mph in 4th haha
@imbogfootstrato Manuals are more fun, but Automatics are faster hands down, they shift more precisely than most pro's can with a manual, plus you don't have to let off the gas to shift, so you're always pulling.
@chevyman5436 On a normal manual it really depends on how close the ratios on your gears are, you just ease up on the gas a tad for a split second to unload the gears and pop it into the next gear. Ask a truck driver, they don't use the clutch except to start from a dead stop.
thats a fast camaro. not only did you miss 2nd gear it didn't look like they left the line hard. it was like they left off of idol and still ran 11. i would love to take a car like that and wind it out to it's top speed.
Yep You won alright I even remember the race(how can you forget racing aganst that)and yes it was a 396 mild cam only running 13.08.But is now a 472 .Thanks for the race see you down there soon.
@johnymatic lol na man its a full drag car with all the goodies. it pulls first gear with the front tires just cruising above the track. It's not all about the size of the motor but how all the internal parts work together....
with auto an stall definitly 10s my mph is 134 but the manuals killing it an vac carbs,it was built to be daliy driver an is, does 11 flat without dropin da clutch shit 60 foot times
