 well fellas it was good while it lasted it was good while it lasted the old the old 545 bless her heart she has exited the building she has exited the building so there come on shift as some of you guys know we went to the track last night for the first time and we ran okay number we ran okay number we went into the 11 still granted you know this tune that's in here we only got like 10 degrees of timing in it is very very mild we're still dialing in the AFR and we have a transmission that's kind of been slipping for a little while but we've been making do with it but I'm sad to say that the old 545er she has finally exited the building gentlemen we pushed her a little hard last night and she didn't like it so we are currently the truck does not want to shift out of third or fourth gear sometimes and it does not want nothing to do with going in the overdrive when I am going a little faster but we're still able to move it around at least a little bit so John cope transmission shift yeah you can kind of see how the shifts are hanging big time like when it goes from one to two it is climbing the rpm band a lot before it shifts and it kind of shifts really hard so probably matter of time before we lose second and third gear next but I mean what do you want we have ran this old 445 transmission for the last two years on nitrous and now boost hard as hell the old girl has got her ass beaten oh man she's shifting hard and she did us good guys she did us good this good hundred and forty nine thousand miles we got on this transmission with all the abuse and I think she's done there's no more track time for this old this old baby right here she's gonna have to come out but just wanted to kind of give you guys a heads up that's what happened so transmission is el tosto she's not wanting to shift in overdrive when I'm on the road most of time right now because we've raced it last night and put on the trailer and then I decided I wanted to drive it to work today and as soon as I left my neighborhood I noticed it wasn't shifting right and it's not wanting to shift so definitely time to take the old transmission out and put in the new one so that's what's gonna be going down very soon I'm gonna try to hit I'm gonna try to make it up to Indiana by the end of the month so we can swap it in and get it done as fast as possible I want to try to be able to race some more while we got some cooler weather so we can get some really good track times hopefully but last night I'll kind of give you a little hedge peek so last night we took it out and the transmission has been having a little slip to it but mainly on the road if I'm trying to hit it from a roll slip on the track and guys it was doing this kind of last year before we hung it up last season on the track it wouldn't slip hardly at all as long as I was racing or starting from a dig it would it would pull pretty good on the high on the road when I would go out and do my testing or my test hits I would it you could feel it it would slip more it felt like when I was on the street trying to do test hits from a moving roll or something so last night's pass anyway we finally went took a took a hit and we ran 11 it was 11 eight the mile an hour was kind of low for the time as to the transmission slipping for sure and again on that tune it's the fourth provision tune we have we're still dialing in the AFR and I did have to lift the pedal twice on that pass because we were going we got up to about 12 to 12 one in the AFR so I let out and then I instantly got back in it to see if it was gonna try to go back lean again and it did but we still ran 11 eight having to lift a couple times but I got some good data so we can hopefully dialed in a little better again that pass we only had I think it was 10 degrees of timing in it so we have nothing in it while we're you know doing or testing didn't pull any knock or anything like that of course especially with 10 degrees but that's what it is so first pass out of the gate unfortunately the transmission decides it wants to completely probably kill us out so we're not going to race on it no more but we made a good pass for the first time out on all the new changes so we ran exactly what I ran on nitrous you know year and a half ago or whatever so but that's what's up I got some video footage we did somehow managed to beat a hell of a fast car that night when we we made that pass last night he trapped 129 miles an hour and we still got to finish line first but we took I mean the truck launched hard it pulled it pulled really good until I had to start lifting and watching the gauges a little bit because we were getting lean and yeah so that's the dilly I'm gonna end it right here as always guys have fun out there don't forget subscribe to the channel I'll have this track footage from last night up here pretty soon and lots other stuff to put on I got a lot of other stuff we got to install on truck still I got some new LED fog lights we're gonna be putting on obviously the transmission is going in super fast now and that's gonna be fun that's gonna be awesome I do have the new shifter here already John Cope sent me to shifter the other day so we're gonna do an unboxing on a shifter and that shifter is absolutely amazing it's it feels awesome it's super smooth it looks awesome and it's gonna be fun it's gonna be dry it's gonna be fun driving the truck being an automatic still but you're gonna have to manually shift the gears which is gonna be fun so the racing experience on the track with this truck is gonna be that much funner because now we're gonna have to ship the gears on the new transmission so you know it's gonna kind of put you more in tune with the vehicle and going down the track it's just gonna be fun so we're definitely gonna have some awesome camera footage on the inside of the truck when we get the transmission on the gear changes and everything with the trans brake and all that mess but other than that guys stay tuned lots of stuff to come we'll see you on the next one peace
