Picture of my LAUNCH!

This was a 1.32 60ft. at the '03 southern shootout. The Hoosiers were workin'!!

A few of you were asking me about the pictures so here you go...

This is a good selling point for the Wolfe rear sway bar. The Black SS (Slomaro) has one and my car doesn't. Can you say TWISTED?!

Btw, for those of you waiting for me to post the results of the new QA1 "R" series front shocks, well as we can all see, those MF's work!!!!! When I installed the I set them at 5. I never played with them since.

That's getting some air.

I can only dream about running a 60' time like that. Congrats.

Do you even have an airbag? Cool pic, the two cars side-by-side, one with a swaybar, one without.

No, I need to change my sig. Just before this race we put a Moser 12 bolt w/ spool and 3.73's. The best 60ft I ever got out of the 10 bolt was a 1.41 on 26" ET drags. The first pass ever with the 28" hoosiers on the 10 bolt shattered the carrier in a million pieces.

which was a 10 bolt with the Eaton HD posi unit and Moser 28 spline axles on the stock 3.23 gears.

The car does have an airbag but it seemed if I put any air in it then my launches were a lot straighter but it wouldn't hook as well. The more the car twisted, the better 60ft I got.
