Hey Curt, Not so fast young man! Actually alot can happen between now and then, so don't write it off yet. The cool thing about this event is that I don't have to reserve spots, so you can

Hey, Adam & all. Sadly, it looks like I'm going to have to bail out of the Shark Drag, with closing on a condo, moving, and having Mom out to visit for a week all threatening to happen right around

Louie has I like these 2 choices best From what I understand, it is physically impossible to have a reaction time guess I think I can clear this up: Your reaction time is the time between when

Hi Jim, I thought I could flush out you MOPAR guys with that post, Funny thing, after several searches on the web for information, I came up with two good hits, one being that link and the other

Good call whoever it was who found this,always,always trust the Mopar guys because they live drag racing! A very wise man once said: "Horsepower is the quotient of torque versus RPM" See he didn't

Hi Louis and all. Forgive a private question for Louis on this forum, but I saw his recent post so if you are still at the keyboard, Louis, a quick question about the PSD on a 90 GT, as I am just

Hey Phil, Like Louie said, you have it exactly right, except you can ignore the final drive ratio since we are comparing the gears (final drive is a constant)... I did a little web research and

Hi Tom, I did poke around with numbers last night. My conclusion is that to get maximum acceleration from my '87 S4 5-speed, I should upshift at redline. This won't be true of all vehicles, rather

Okay folks, here's the latest shark drag roster: Louie "The Professor" Ott Steve "Slottman" Ott Terry "The Enforcer" Redinger Tom "Midlman" Middleton Rob "Dolby" Fossett Curt "Bitwiz" Nichols Adam

Hi Ralph, Sounds very interesting, I haven't looked into "other" coils yet but if this set up is indeed more efficient and cheaper, it may be worth considering. I don't think it would affect our

Hello all, In a unilateral executive decision, I'm going to be presenting a second graphic for the back of the shark drag shirt. I wasn't quite happy with my first rendering. The new graphic will

Hey Phil, The torque curves are in the owners manual. I can't recall if the ratios are there, but I know they are in the repair manuals. If you would like, I could scan them and shoot them over to

Hey Tom, I believe Lloyd has one mounted in his shark already. -Adam

The recent coil discussions are interesting, I was just recently considering coils and wondering if anyone had gone to an E coil? Seems like a nice cheap easy upgrade type of item that one of the big

Well you asked.... Everyone needs 2 sharks!!! Jim before

Hi Phil, I would like to see the numbers if you do crunch them... Need to see where my auto shifts too, and the corresponding drops in RPM. Time to go out for a loaf of bread.....;-). I think

Hi Tom, Ed R. seems like a nice guy, but his posts perpetuate a rather common misconception, namely that acceleration is maximized by shifting to keep the engine close to its torque peak. In fact,
