Re: Need some suspension help ASAP Yeah but I bet your tires last less than that <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Speaking of planetarys, there is a 1.76 for sale on the board. Think the guy wants 150 for them. Plus in the George destructometer, I dont think anything is safe <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
If it makes you any happier, Chip killed the converter in the Camaro. It only had 52 passes on it and all were off the footbrake. At least its still under warrantee though, lol. Front pump is also toast so the whole trans is going to come apart just to make sure its clean.

Re: Need some suspension help ASAP Tip I learned from the Jr. Dragster crowd hanging out with my little brother, but havent tried it in big race car land. When the slicks start to get old and tired, while they're off the car, soak them in WD-40. Sounds funny putting oil on your tires trying to get them to hook, but it works in their crowd. Little bro set a new best last week after trying it. 9.72@65 in the 1/8 with a hopped up 5 horse Briggs. It's amazing how soft it'll turn the old ET Jr Drags.
