I take it you can feel the dip in acceleration? If not could just be the needle sticking slightly at that point.

If the acceleration is struggling I dont get why it would only do it in 2nd?

0 - 60 in 8.5 seconds - can't be that flat!

I agree with Joe M, can't see how it could happen. Goes well by the looks of it though.

Now ive got my speakers on it doesnt sound like its struggling either.

Take it you haven't sold it then Chris... sounds like you have a tiny bit of a flat spot in there but as said above are you sure it's not just a slightly sticky needle?

[chris CORRADO 0]

selling it tho ;-)
