yeah, I am a little concerned about that too. I think I'm probably gonna launch hard, pull 2nd and as soon as I see the light, let off, that should be before the 1/8th mile mark the way it's geared I'd suspect... but we'll see.

What is the 1/8th time they shut you down for running anyway?

Thanks Dave your car's damn strong as well.... don't kid yourself. On the bottle, you're gonna scare yourself I'm sure of it.

Only reason there isn't one in mine yet is I want to get the chassis sorted out, and then the safety stuff, once that's done, it's gonna get one. You know what's in that motor.... I'd be a fool not to spray it.

Sean if you're spraying I'm sure you'll have me covered.. your car's badass. I thinkwe're both gonna have to be careful even with the 1/8th mile, we can get kicked out for going too fast for that portion too.

Ron I'm gonna go to burger king with it on saturday, unless I get pulled over before I get that far LOL. I've heard alot louder cars (not many, but some) pull in there, I think as long as I take it easy on my way there and don't do anything stupid, I'll be o.k. I get on it at all, and you'll hear it a mile away.
