It's a little easier to pull a good 60' with an auto though.

You can't heat up the tires in an AWD either.

That is fast. I will order up a 78mm turbo and direct port nitrous kit, then I might have a chance.

He is running a GT42, so it is probably a 74mm or the less common 76mm version.

He has a Shepracing dogbox in it. Last year he was running a Shepracing modified stock one.

78mm is the class limit. NDRA has more open rules for pro 4 then NHRA. So I thought the 74mm was the limit and you could only run one poweradder with methonal. Now I can try some nawz with my high boost on meth, it will be fun.

His tranny costs 3300 and you can get 300 off for a core.

The same one he uses. That is what I planned on ordering up anyhow. I asked how much for the race box they use in his car and that is what he replied.

$3300 for a tranny? Holy Shit! I'd convert to RWD with a glide in it before i'd shell that out. I wonder if he uses a stock dsm rear end in it. I would assume the drive shaft is not stock neither are the 1/2 shafts?

There are always changing the rules to try to keep the cars closer. They made Rau go down to a 78mm from an 80mm in the middle of season, to try to slow his car down.

Yup, DSS modded xfer case and output shaft.

Shep runs a 4-speed dogbox, most people aren't going to be ordering that.

I should be ordering all my drivetrain in about 2 weeks, and the cage should be going in over the next 2 weeks also.
