Mate off the topic abit,
Just noticed your signiture quote is the same as mine. Sounds like we came from the same school of driving too as "T5 operators" lol. Good quote from Motor. Ironic too you own a Venom Red XR6 HP with premium sound and 17inch wheels. : :

Hahahaha, mate i've gone schizo with a T5 specially when it jack hammers off the line due to the immense HP power.

Somme say that he's possibly cured the problem this after noon and that he fitted new rear shocks as well, all we know him as the Strider.

An auto VCT (unopened) running 14's? Come September I'm thinking its likely :evilsasmo

HUH? The launch is what kills the auto. They are consistant.. consistantly SLOW! But that can be fixed :
Next time try launching in second gear.. thats what the wuss-o-matic is like.

Anyhow, you'll have to find some more power in your HP otherwise the next grudge match is going to be a totally different story. You got me on the launch but you were not getting away after that. If I had your launch I would have had you.. I got the top end legs (yes, my MPH was higher remember : )

Gunna get ya next time :P

Ok wise guy lol. Blames jack hammer option and no lsd. :monkes: :monkes: Nah i will admit defeat you've got your car sorted. Hopefully these new trail arms and shockies that Mock fitted will cure the axle tramping issue and i'm hoping to see under 15.5.
