Only reason I ask is I was just thinking of being able to have a larger gear spread so you could shift less, you guys have the torgue, you really don't need a lot of gears, or am I way off base here? Just trying to educate myself a bit.

Thanks Stan

I only know of one truck running an automatic. He races in Quebec and hes the only one allowed to run an auto in his class (don't ask me why). Other then him I don't know anyone with one. Super fast isn't my top priority it just wouldn't be as fun for me without shifting the gears.

We need some vids of your rig in action

My turbo isn't THAT big. Crusing on the street it won't light til 1700rpm. I only have videos with my stock turbo. Only driven my truck 4 times since I put the new turbo on. I think someone took a video of my truck this weekend at the races in Quebec but I have to try and get it from him.

Gotcha, isn't there a guy up there by you running a big old school Detroit in a red Argosy?

That truck has the auto in it.

Well I didn't do that well in the races cause I didn't launch it properly for either of the races. The drive up there was only my second time driving it with this setup so im far from use to it. I need to get the turbo to spool quicker, pretty well everyone pulls their air filters out but I didn't. Next time I go to the track i think im gonna try it.

On a side note when the turbo lights... it works REAL well

Hard to tell but I believe so. Really need some more rpm
