I only drive it when its nice out, and I haven't had much time to whore it out this year

otherwise yeah I would have made a few more dragway trips, and maybe a few car shows. But with buying the house and all I just didn't have the time.

Barry do you have an update?

Barry · Post by **Barry** » Sun Oct 25, 2009 9:08 pm

Not much of a update. Orderes a spec stage 3 and it came a few days ago.

College is slamming me right now with work and studying. PLus im still working my job on the side so I cant do anything.

One of these weekends I gotta get cracking. Driving the 3100 auto is lame.

Funny that you would say that, I drive one everyday. It's the Final Drive that makes it so slow. My Grand Am trans is on the way to take care of that problem. Sure hope I get the chance to get it in before it starts snowing. Winter break is coming, are you going to work on your car then?

Jon's built 4T60E was much better than my stock one when I drove his car briefly. But he had also modified the shift points, etc. not just the FDR.

I'd be happy if I could have everything that he has done to his trans, but I've done all that I can for now(that is when the new one is in the car,lol

) It would be a good trans if that second gear was lower. Oops...... forget about that, it's a dream(no money). GM doesn't learn, why should I? The new 6spd auto is just the same. I guess I can keep bitching........ there will never be a FWD 200-4R. Ok I'm done.

Gm really dosent learn. I dont understand some of their moves. I also think if they mated the 3100 to a stick tranny the beretta would be a more respected car like the integra and such.

Winter break is when I plan to get this thing back together and get it on the road again. I am actually off today so im going to start swapping parts over from the motors and modify the block for the new 3500. If I have time ill get the flywheel turned.

The target market just is not the same as the teggy's and such. When I see a nice stock Beretta, I see a old lady driving it. If I see a kid driving a Beretta, it is often beat up and just shy of being in the junkyard.
