Here's a new one from this weekend! The front travel limiters are set just right. This is also our best 60ft with 2 1.33s 60fts back to back.

Not sure I buy that 1.30 60' with the back tires. On a good run mine 60's 1.32 with the front tires and has run a 1.41 breaking the 60' clocks with the back tires.

That's .09 difference in ET with a 108" wheelbase car. If you were 1.30 with the back tires, it would have had to 60' a 1.21 +/- .01. Doesn't seem very realistic does it?

EDIT: or did I mis-read your post and you meant to say it was a 1.30 60' up on the back tires, but not breaking the 60' clocks with the backs, rather the front tires?

I took it as "this is what the rear tires look like on a 1.3 60 ft"

I had to read that twice also. I believe he's just referring to how it looks for his 1.30 launch.

Comp TA... McKinney is a bad man, I love that car.

Here's my sissy wheelie, my car likes to carry them more so than get big air... I swear it gets up higher than that though


Here's my dads car, that's a 1.41 on the back tires... The camera guy took it too early, he has scrapes on the tail panel but that wasn't the biggest wheelie it pulled that weekend.


He may get more air but I'm faster at least

Bravo to all the 4th gens, I like what I see.

This was a 1.41 60' on the back tires. You can see the 60' beam in front of the car.

The car runs 9.20's. Cracked the oil pan on that pass.
