I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

other then that one time at the track i never had any problems at all with the stock auto St tranny. you probly wont find any thing either for the trans such as torque converters or closer ratio drive gears. i have searched before and found nothing.
