Good, a bunch of FWD's this year. By the time you guys figure out how to get it to hook, I'll be at the shack picking up my slip. :-)
I doubt that I'll be running by the end of this year. Besides, what do you have??

low reving
want torque?
not me, i want the 2.14. it would be really fun and it's still rare, apparently. i bet no one has done it in a 'quest.
i'm sure a RWD tranny exists that can shift very high and still be street driven. or at least modified to do so. T56 maybe?

But why would you ever want to get rid of that awesome Starquest motor? Just drop a TH400 into it.

yes, a tranny designed for an engine with a 6000 rpm redline would be a fantastic choice for a motor that revs to 10

Steve has run an 11. I agree with Craig, if you really want a good number out of a FWD, go with an auto. A stick is more fun to drive, but an auto is going to hook a lot better.

Prime example is that white Laser that was at the shootout two years ago. I can't remeber the guys name, but I think JET talked to him. He was running consistant low 10s with a FWD Laser auto. It looked super boggy out of the hole and then it just took off like a bat out of hell.

He had a stick in it this year and ran 9s.

Yeah, it does. The "pro-shifted" Liberty T56 shifts that high without problem.
