Just curious. I've got the battery in the trunk (track legal)and I'm definitely feeling froggy.

I've seen them with the current 1.6X's you have. More tire out back and 4.XX:1 gears never hurt anyone either [worship]

Rhett's car yanks the driver side tire consistantly with low 1.6's and high 1.5's. People have claimed to see it come up as high as 6 inches [Eek!] (I didn't take that one to heart...lol)

I have been told mine has pulled both wheels with a 1.6x 60 foot. good subframes will help. I saw a post that you said you have now gone 11.80 is it true N/A or bottle??? [burnout]

I was talking out of my ass.

I've got 3 mods in the car now that I think will buy me an 11.8x.

*electric H20 pump
*summit plastic bucket seat (pulling the cushion saves 2#'s [Whoo Whooooo!] )
*trunk-mounted battery

who knows.

I was told that I pulled both fronts a couple weeks ago in Redding on a 1.62 60' Front sway bar INSTALLED !!!!
Seems the front sway bar helped pick up the other tire [Big Grin]

It was actually quite amazing considering there was NO track prep (street legal drag night) no water in the box, no burnout, the swaybar installed AND on the motor. [Big Grin]

No wonder the torque box ripped [Eek!] [Wink]

the quickest cars usually never do [Wink]

I think it's all about the wheelie myself. I totally see myself going K-member, A-arms and coilovers to save ~80#'s up front, and seeing what that does for the wheelie [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

it's not like I can keep up with any serious car, so at least I can say, "...yah, but did you see me pull the wheels though?" [Roll Eyes] [Whoo Whooooo!]
