Don't think I've ever seen a stick car w/a loose converter, Mr. Borderline....Jeff's car had been running MT D/R's previous, and am pretty sure they never made any suspension changes when the new ET Drag slicks were bolted on...Probably the main reason for the bumper-stander, like most have said. Perfect air and traction last Sat....Many people had new 60' bests and overall bests...WJ

your dads car with that power and a 28" slick should have atleast a 3.90
as for the cars HP, 600 is about right to the wheels. i was 750 to the wheels out of the hole 300 shot, and stood 2 feet up 99% of the time. its all in the suspention. even my first passes this year where pretty mint. just a little wheelie and that was it. i was close to the same wheel power, but lighter then last year, and i moved alot of weight around, so for a first pass out, a little preload adjustment, and i was golden.
i think i will do bars for next season, but next season should be interesting!!!

then the next pull it was like 400. im going to geuss its more in the 400's because a few of them read 530-550 so 500 tops.
but the car can make 100 hp or 1000 hp, if the power isnt getting to the ground the right way, you spin or wheelie.
