1/4 mile with Hendrix-Engineering axles yet? So has anyone actually launched on a sticky surface with these bad boys yet? I've seen the vids of burn out but no passes yet.
Thanks

I wish I had a set. At the strip, bunny hopped all the way through the 60' with 2.355 & 2.311 and finished strong at 105.39 mph with 13.89 & 13.81.
That was in Arizona heat and first time at the strip with the V. And, to top it all off, FN Tire Pressure Monitoring System decided to act up and not let me put in competition mode, so both runs were with traction control on.
I was really scared to make a third shot at it until I can get the Hendrix axles. I don't want the economy ones, either.
I am not dissapointed with those times considering.

It will definitely be hot here, but all we can hope for in August is no rain and pray to the racing gods that the humidity is low. At No Problem Raceway, I've run in -2000DA before in the fall and spring for some GREAT numbers...and put my stock crew cab HD into the 15's on a 30 degree night in winter at that track this past winter..haha. It runs mid-upper 16s in the summer. I'm definitely not expecting much this Saturday, but would be happy with mid-upper 13s.

Got to be careful here in az there is a abundance of fast ricers too. I used to share a shop with Arizona Forced Induction (A.F.I.) they have a street legal civic thats around 875hp that runs low low 9s at 165 mph traps and looks stock and idles good. There was a bunch of them in the low 10s loud a** cars would make my v cry
