I run a short shifter and strong spring and my second gear synchro is pretty much stuffed. Been looking into doing my own gear box rebuild with Kevlar bands and what not but dunno if I'm up to it.

That was a 12.22 @ 116 mph with 308 rwkw. Youngy also did a 11.7 which was the quickest manual at the time. 1
