I'd be more concerned about the clutch than the transmission unless you miss a gear. Actually, driving at the strip isn't much different than driving on the street anymore. Go for it! Let us know if you break16 secs [img]smileys/smiley32.gif[/img] Edited by: MINICooperS

it also depends on how strong you come out on launch. Too much rpms will cause the clutch to slip badly. I found that out with mine. I've raced a few people and did good. I have a 1998 Saturn SL1 and I have a cold air intake. Another thing I noticed is spark plugs help a lot. I am running Bosch Platinum +2 and I can really feel the difference. Try this out it really helps on top end.

Many a differential pin has shot through the tranny housing.....from reading many a post in many a forum, I believe that people who do serious dragging get the diff pin welded
