I blame my transmission problems on ATCO. Even though I know it's not their fault.
First run, my tires were wet and I launched too high, so I spun first and part of second off the line, ran a 17.2.
Second run, go up against a modded WS6...that was fun. They sprayed down my front tires at the box, and the track temp was only about 110, which isn't anywhere near hot enough to get the water off before lanch. Spun through first, second, and most of third. Ran an 18.2 or something.
Stock my car should run about 16.
The reason I didn't burn out is because the S-Series saturns had horrible transmissions. The differential pin would fly out of the bell housing and shoot way far down. Yay open FWD differentials. They can blow at 10mph. Mine is just lucky that it hasn't blown yet...ask Alex (SilverBulletRL). It will soon though.
