Went to track Sat Got a new personal bet time for the Monte Carlo! 13.86@101.43 Thats with a 2.25 60' time. The track we were at would make street cars launch in a different spot from the slick cars. Hell the left lane the left tire was on the paint! well anyway here is the vid with my buddy's faster 04 Impala SS. (it clicked off a 13.2 later in the day) http://pcloadletter.uits.iupui.edu/.../RobVSChris.wmv

Wow! You went right to work on modding that sucker didn't you. Do they make a stall for those yet?
Posted by: cswrench
They do not due to the fact that you can't get it to hook up. They do make a limited slip diff for them but they are pricey!!!!
Posted by: MikeT
so that thing is a one legger?
Posted by: cswrench
yep all front drive cars are unless modified
Posted by: MikeT
well that sucks. Why don't they put limited slips in from the factory?

Wow! Didn't know they weren't limited slip... Shows what I know about FWD's!

The front drivers have very bad steering with a posi. Both wheel trying to go together don't turn well. If you put a limited slip in the front end it's actually a viscous coupling. These will allow some difference in rpm to allow steering. The viscous coupling does hurt steering a bit, but not much. The set back is they are very expensive. Although the cost is a factor, the factory is more concerned about the steering issue. Safety first you know.
