My SS is boosted an it's an Auto, I live in the city, and driving a manual in city traffic is tiring and overrated, just to say you shift your own gears. No thank you. I mash the gas and get thrown back just fine in my auto when I pull it out.
People usually ask if it's a stick and I say no, then they act uppity make jokes, and I just ask them to race.
GTR.What you push to the track breh?
so does yours.The car that practically drives itself.

Stock 4L60(LS) transmissions are faulty above 400rwhp, they break like eggshells. 6 speeds hold up much better for racing. New GTR's and the like are on another level, not even comparable.

I'll do you one better than some stills, here's a video of me and a buddy's Monte Carlo, Grudge Running at our resident track this past season. His homeboy doubled up when he saw my tires and still I came out with $400
Theres tracks in Joliet(Route 66) and a resident track in Morocco and we go to that one because they aren't as strict.
I'm getting ready to go back out again in a few months with better tires/suspension.
I haven't done shyt to the inside of the car, still stock interior other than safety stuff.

~$15k over the course of 4 years, the car itself was $10k when I bought it back in 2009. Just over $3k/year in modifications which is very mild compared to some race budgets. I work very slowly, one thing at a time. Can't afford anything insane yet.
I did all my own work except for the Engine block/Transmission build, and Tuning. That saved a bunch of money also.
wtf does this even mean?
