Did anyone happen to get any footage of a black WS6 leaving the line hard then getting sideways and slip slidding around at about the 330' mark??

I would REALLY like to get ahold of the vid if someone can help me out.

I'm guessing that was the pass where you were driving that crazy bouncy WS6?

Yup, that's the one.

I just wanted to see if it was as fun looking as it was feeling.

I only drove it once and didn't wanna drive it again. LOL It is totally fun to launch but I wasn't too keep on the suspension setup. I just wanted to see how hard it could lanuch and then show Ricky how to duplicate it. I told him what to do and he went out and made it work. Props to him

The car is very quick for the mods done on it IMO. I foresee some better times coming soon.

It's funny because I never got scared when it got out of shape. None of the legs getting tingly or anything. Just kept thinking to myself that I had to keep it out of the wall so I didn't have to pay for a new paint job.

I agree. If i knew I couldn't buy him a replacement car I wouldn't have drove it... That's the only thing that freaked me out, I could have got him one but then I'd be really broke..
