I have to ask though, what's up with the trans these guys are using? Seems like all of them have trans trouble at first?

They are using an electric shift valve body in a protrans. When it shifts, the trans seems to be applying first and second at the same time. Really not a good thing. On the graph, the car noses over hard, then shifts...about 1600 rpm later. Not good. Mike

To clarify, Warford ran 9.94 at 131@indy last week, an unfactored track. Mike

Les just called and said they won "best engineered" car. First rd he said he was on a .16 or .17 and had to dump the guy cause he was late on the tree and wasn't going to catch him. 1.32 60 foot. Congrats Les on a great first outing!

It's very rare that a Stocker wins a Best Engineering award...Best Appearing yes...Best Engineering no. Very deserving of that award...Good Job !!!

Fabulous. Familiar looking paint job, looks great!!! It sounds like the performance does that proud paint scheme justice.
