NOS drag guys in here, is this possible??
Would it be possible to spray a small shot(50,75)with my set-up(gears)and still get traction. First gear would probably fry the tires but what about from 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th??

Thanks guys just what I was looking for <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> . If I manage not to spin I should not have to shift into 5th correct?

What are your traps now? On a stock size tire (stock limiter), with 4.10s you can only hit about 111 mph before you tap the limiter. I'm going to assume you will pull higher mph than that.

Who knows? It has SOOOOOO much to do with your track. I've pulled 1.51s on Nittos where as some folks find it hard to pull 1.8s with 'em.

Sure it's possible.
I know folks who have sprayed 100-150 and run good, but sometimes they spin their butts in first gear.
My old 98SS had 4.10's and 150 shot on nitto's and I could not hook it at the track.
