LOL, no, unfortunately, I disintegrated my T-5 somewhere around the time the car was running 12.0's. I sapped in a Tremec but then the ol' knees finally got tired of pushing in a clutch to in went the C-4 w/ 3500 stall. That did the job just fine. The trip to the trac was a little painful. I'd just set it on 3000 rpm and plod along at about 65 mph. I'd just shake my fist at everybody who passed me and yell something about getting even once we got there.

Future plans are to first see if I can break the record for the world's oldest new father. If that doesn't work out, I'll be back a little sooner, most likely sporting some old '60s iron again. Or, if they get the retro thing right and at least a 5.0 engine back...who knows.
Edit: BTW, when the T-5 went, it was on a normal shift pulling away from a light on the way to work. Third gear just decided to disentegrate in the middle of 118th Ave.
