I drove it again with the drag radials and traction is way better even without doing a burnout. A lot less wheelspin and it stays straighter too. I really am rusty with the 4 speed. One poster suggested I'd be lucky to break into the 12s, and right now I would be. I definitely need to drive the car, get used to it, and practice. That motor pulls so hard and revs so quickly it's not easy to grab another gear before you're all over the rev limiter. Be nice to have a half wore out 383 to practice shifting on!
