Haha, screw that. Pull the spare tire and you're there. Just don't get a flat.

What kind of tires are you running and why aren't you launching higher? Awesome 60' though, so who am I to tell you how to launch .

I had the spare out. I'm using M/T drag radials. I'm not launching higher because of the rear..think it can hold 2,500 with no problem? Eaton posi and gears are new.

you should be ok for a few good passes on a 10bolt. rememeber, they are weak steal parts, not glass parts.

good luck with it.

wow, excellent running car you have there I must admit,... is the Vig converter a Single or Multi disc? ANd other than spare/jack do you have any weight reduction? And I say your rear will be fine for awhile as long as you dont make a habit of beating on it,...im making 11 second passes on mine, driving it to the track,...and used to be making numerous 12 second passes as well, makes no noise and has plenty of miles on it as well. Stall it up as high as u can go!! The higher I stalled mine up the quicker my ET was

98redZ- Vig is a single disc I believe..no weight reduction other than clearing out the trunk area. My gears do whine a bit..

Thats kickass omcar, very astounding time I must admit. And Ridinfilthy,...I get a better 60ft if i stall it up....the higher i go the lower the 60. So it varies car to car, converter to converter,...and mostly setup to setup
