[QUOTE="CV355, post: 16171858, member: 181885"] Guilty as charged. It's dangerous as hell. 25% throttle in 1st is enough to go sideways. A quick "bark" in 3rd, regardless of speed or rpm, is enough to spin the tires. And I have two witnesses who can testify that the car is capable of spinning the tires in 5th on the highway just rolling on the throttle. Granted, I don't screw around like this (and haven't done a single burnout), but you have to know the limits of the car and traction. Current limit = not much. That's one of the reasons that I baby the car so much. I remember when I had my KB'd '00 GT with 4.10s, going from 225 Continentals to 315 NT555Rs was insane. It could actually hook 90% of the time on the street. When I put MT ETs on the back on the track, that blew my mind even further. That was a ~400rwhp car. I can't imagine what my GT500 would be like with MT ETs on it. Only thing stopping me from doing it is that I'm trying to sell the poor thing. [/QUOTE]
