Lethaface Posted September 4, 2007 Report Posted September 4, 2007 Hey guys.. After doing some searching around just had a few quick questions for you guys.. What kind of override are you guys running in the 1/8th.. I was gonna do a 2-6 but was told 6th becomes unreliable after being cut.. So are you guy's running 1-5 and gearing up or 2-4 and just manual shifting into 5th and 6th?? Any info would be great.. Thanks, Jeremy Quote

Thanks, Jeremy i was thinking of doing the one that does 1 threw 4 no clutch then 5 and 6 clutch which ever that one is called, but i am just learning about them also Quote
Lethaface Posted September 4, 2007 Author Report Posted September 4, 2007 Yeah i forgot to mention that one as well.. it's a 1-4 Quote
Bansh-eman Posted September 4, 2007 Report Posted September 4, 2007 i havent heard anything about 6th being unreliable. if anything it first or second because that thing gets to beat on. if your going to do 1-4 might as well go 1-5 and move neut down so you dont ever have to worry about missing 2nd you looking at a dunable ?

methyman Posted September 4, 2007 Report Posted September 4, 2007 Yeah i forgot to mention that one as well.. it's a 1-4 I am running a 1-5 with nuetral down. Most all the banshees here are running 1-5 over rides that run 1/8 mile. The banshees that run 1/4 mile use 1-4 and click 5&6. Quote

The banshees that run 1/4 mile use 1-4 and click 5&6. Thanks... Jeremy and I talked on the phone last night....and since I only run 300foot...I wasn't sure what to tell him. I figured 1-5 would be ok, gearing up as well.... Quote
alcoholbanshee Posted September 4, 2007 Report Posted September 4, 2007 I have had both...I liked the 1-5 better and just geared up.....way up!!!!! Quote

When they cut the overrides 1-6 6th gear often is a problem......... Quote
dajogejr Posted September 4, 2007 Report Posted September 4, 2007 When they cut the overrides 1-6 6th gear often is a problem......... Correct me if I'm wrong, Rog... When you cut a 1-6, you literally have to be dead stopped...as in STOPPED before you downshift. Quote
alcoholbanshee Posted September 4, 2007 Report Posted September 4, 2007 Correct me if I'm wrong, Rog... When you cut a 1-6, you literally have to be dead stopped...as in STOPPED before you downshift. You are correct!!!!! Quote
NYUK Posted September 5, 2007 Report Posted September 5, 2007 I RAN 1to4 in 8 th and quarter mile.had just about every bad situation happen, wheelies ,crashes,let off without clutching, nothing ever went wrong with that fucker.andy could cut one mean override. Quote
Lethaface Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Posted September 5, 2007 (edited) I think 1-5 with neutral down is going to be my choice.. Now to crack into those cases Edited September 5, 2007 by Lethaface Quote
dajogejr Posted September 5, 2007 Report Posted September 5, 2007 I think 1-5 with neutral down is going to be my choice.. Now to crack into those cases In my opinion...the only way to fly...you have the most gearing options.... Quote
Bansh-eman Posted September 5, 2007 Report Posted September 5, 2007 whats the deal with the 1-6 that you have to be stopped? thats the first iv heard of it... then again i havent really read shit about the 1-6 becasue i never cared to get one Quote

And alcoholbanshee probably knows more than 95% people on this site about this kinda thing. That's not a knock to our members by any means, he's just been around a track and drag racing for a while. Like Jr. Soprano says..."I knew Moses when he wore short pants..." That kinda fits. :yelrotflmao: Quote
