Test launching on the street with new setup. Man, after having a t56 for so long, driving a RMVB th400 is quite a chore!!!
Here's a vid of me practicing launching on the street before I take on any competitors!
The first one is just garbage, I didnt get lined up right, and when I launched I pulled my hand straight into second gear. haha.
I never went full out in first, or second gear except for the last run on there when it spun when I went 100% into second.
Car still isnt where I want it, I need a drag bar and a few other things, but what cha guys think thus far?

you should lay rubber out even further to help with traction when youre really gonna launch... whats your stall speed?
as far as the drag sway bars, go with a wolfe racecraft, i went with the single but your aiming at the moon so get the double.

The double is for like 8:40 and lower. I dont think I'm gonna see that. Plus the double you need an aftermarket gastank. Im gonna get the single, I already been looking into it.

Keep up the practice and learn to drive that thing brother!!!
The car sounds great.
Get the single wolfe(I can show you pictures of mine if you want).
I think I might go play around on the street with the line lock/t-brake/2 step later today as a matter of fact.
