Thanks for the heads up 4fedZ. I'm planning to start slowly. Try it from first gear only (auto trans) then second. I'm thinking I will get the hang of it with a few practices. I certainly don't want to get dead.
Again to everyone to has helped me with my endeavor... THANK YOU!!!!!

HA! I'm on the same thought pattern. I had just changed both fronts with Mitch run flats (major blowout hitting a pot hole) and knowing the Vortex was to soon be added I elected to WAIT before changing rears. The rear tires according to the tire guy have 10000 miles left on them. I think they will be good for another 100 miles. May as well practice on them. Ordering a new set next week.
I love it when people tell me I'm gonna have a blast! I have been watching the tack in each gear mph/rpm even with out the blower she is FAST.
My planning is right on... In three weeks I get to drag race a police car... it's a money raising event but it will be SO cool having a police car behind me me doing 150 MPH and not going to jail.
We also have an event at the Atlanta speedway and July next year back on the track at Talladega. I can just imagine what it's going to be like.

You won't be doing much watching the tach when you first get it out on the road, you'll be too scared to take your eyes off the road
Unless the Cop Car is a 9-second doorslammer he hasn't got a chance. Sounds like a good time.
I'd love to get out on a large banked oval, that must be fun winding the cars out on a long course. Over here we run on the Nurburgring, lots more twisties and short straights so very different driving. Of course the unlimited autobahn gives us a chance run run fast
Have fun with your new Beastie, as others have said be careful. With great power comes great responsibility...
