 Subject: layed a nice long patch!
IP: Logged
Message:
Today my buddy wanted me to burn out at this local car park place and i usually dont want to but i figured what the hell, we'll see if this v6 can spin em. So i revved it to like 2500 and dropped the clutch and they spun for like 5 seconds! I was impressed (considering the v6)
totally owe it all to the 5 speed though. im sure an auto 6 couldnt do it.

I don't know what's more fun ... the smell of the burning rubber ... the cloud of white smoke ... or the awestruck looks of bystanders :-)
Here's what my v6 5spd did at Foxwoods 2001 :-) (Thanks for the pic Walt)

I used to have one wheel drive in my Dak, but I had a posi unit installed the same time the 3:90 gears went in. Makes all the difference in the world with traction.
No problems with the pic and thank you for asking :-) If you don't like the bevel, I can clean it up some like the one below.

The installation of the gears and posi cost basically an arm and a leg compared to some of the prices I've heard. Labor alone was just under $800. The only reason why I had this particular (and expensive) shop do them was because they work on tons of performance, classic and custom vehicles and they really know what they're doing. For this area I would say that they were about $150 over-priced, but I felt very comfortable with them and the gears haven't given me an ouce of trouble or noise.

Nice patch pic! Anyhow, I have a '01 CC Sport 6A and it will lay a good strip, provided you power-brake to get em spinning, get up to a good rev, then let 'er rip. Off the line? Unless it's wet, I can't get em to spin.

With my new tires (235/75/15) my truck won't even chirp from a stand still. It's hard to even get it to power brake now. But if I punch it on a corner it will spin both tires and get sideways(open diff). Anybody have 3.92's w/locker they want to sell?
