With a g-tech, shifting at redline, numerous 6.6 0-60 times.  When I
short shifted(shifting at a lower RPM, I got 7.1 or slower.  The engine
bogs down too much when shifting at anything lower than around 6200
rpm.  At least through my experiences.

BTW, the local drag strip was closed due to rain, which was funny, cause
it was nice out.  It had been raining earlier in the day, but not for a
while.  We found out it was closed by driving upto the gate, and it was
locked.  Next week, I will try again.  I will report back on the tires,
and I will also short shift the car, and let all of you know the times. 
I know they will bw slower, but I will give you exact numbers in a week.
