no wheelie bars needed.... tighten up the extention on front shocks and heaver springs... tighten up the rear extention and compression....

just a little more wheel speed is all

Something that we thought wouldn't be done that day. She was running like azz and was pig rich on spray 10.1 She barely pulled the wheels all day.
We are rethinking alot of stuff. Changing stuff and adding stuff to prevent this from happening again. If we decide on a wheelie bar it will have to be a detachable one since this is my DD car.

Yes.. there are some guys on this board who can verify this to. Someone once ask me how she is legal on the street, I told him its not like she has to be driven at WOT all the time LOL. My only complaint is the gas prices. LOL She gets 14 miles to the gallon. With 93 at $3.15 kinda makes me want to buy a ricer

1.44 on the rear bumper.. The last one was a 1.45. They seem to think I would have gotten a 1.28 or 1.29 if she would have stayed down. My best on all 4s is a 1.32...
As soon as I DL the pics of the bumper I will post them you can see the marks about a 1/2 inch from my tag.
