Well bad news for me. Its quite possible I might not have a job come Jan 1st . The company I work for decided they are closing down one of the 3 stores they have and so the seniority rules and its going by all 3 stores. I am on the edge of the cutoff and could go either way. Worse news is even IF I make the cutoff that will put me back at the bottom so hours may be scarce. 11 yrs and still might not be safe
This is less than ideal...move to Texas, come play with us! We have lots of jobs, some that don't suck!

Well I had a buddy in the car the other day and decided to try timing some 0-60 pulls. Only did a few pulls but managed 6 seconds. Not bad considering I cant go over 1/2 throttle in second lol.

Ha not anymore bucko!!!! This was awhile back before the solid motor mounts, I shift MUCH faster now that my shift knock is gone. Plus that was just showing the separate gear acceleration.
Havent officially checked my gearing it is damn short though, I can only muster maybe 65 in 2nd before rev cut. Dunno about the rest only know second cause my 0-60 pulls the other day lol!!
