Does anyone know of a Turbo charged roush its silver it was out in westgate last night i was gonna race it but i had to race that warren guy...i think it was a roush maybe a saleen but it was way arcoss the parking lot but it kept revving up and blowing off it sounded nice...
Btw i raced warren but he wouldnt go any lower that a 50 roll which is me in 3rd at 3500, and right now it just dont pull that great from 3rd, but anyways i pulled him maybe 1-2 cars until about 105 where i shifted into(GD 5th gear and he then got beside me from 105-110 and had his bumper at my front bumper at 115, where i stopped the pull and maybe inched back up by 120 but he let out so did I....

What i dont get is that why when i shift into 5th it falls so far down in the power band but it picks back up like from 105-115 it has like now pull but from 115-130 it pulls hard again like when i raced kyle b, when i shifted into 5th is when he pulled a solid car on me but then at the mid to top of 5th I stopped his pull and maybe inched back...oh well just gotta shift harder...

Well then your car is one example of strange case, or either Jon's car wasn't running right. It is pretty much a well known fact that LS cars a much better on top end than LT1 cars.

Because you have a boosted car. You need a taller gear. Ed on the other hand, with no boost and his 4.10's is kicking ass with just cheap nitrous setup on a LT1 car. Ed's car would probably pick up a little speed on the juice with 3.73's. At least, you wouldn't wind it out so quick.

Take some pics of your vette's and post them in the "PHOTOSHOP THREAD" at the top of Upstate F-body Forum and i'm sure Jon can whip you something up.
