    did you remove PS and AC? not that that will give much power but it's some weight reduction, plus ditching the condensor in front of the raditor helps cooling.

    did you add any transmission coolers to the carbed auto car?
    Have you tried removing the throttle value cable and locking the throttle value lever on the trans aproximately 2mm away from its maximum range of upward travel...
    It helps going around corners by consitantly downshifting at low rpms and keeping the revs high... which also slows you down just enough to make the turn (engine brake) so you come out of the turn fairly strong, if not stronger then using the tv cable the normal way.
    And if you need to donwshift manually you still can with the shift lever.


    Don't expect the trans to last though... if you don't have proper fluid cooling.
