Couldnt have worded it any better than that.


The line lock is not that much man, go check out the sponsors and see what they are asking for. SLP has a nice one as well.

I agree with taqwache, if you start your dump in 2nd you can feather the gas pedal more and it gives you a little more play in the brakes. Plus you can go longer seeing as our first gear is a really quick ratio.

LINELOCK
this is one of the best mods a M6 can do.
Costs like 130 dollars or something.
Very good mod for the money
Not that hard to install either.
LINELOCK all the way.

tried the 4k dump today, felt real ruff on the car. but it worked. some chump in a saleen saw me smoking and decided he wanted a piece. i tore him apart. i guess i always thought my car was kinda of slow because i had no traction. but those nittos changed my mine. they hook up so well. I dont know what year the saleen was but it was a new model. it was the first time i just launch with very minimal tire spin. the saleen chump wouldnt even look over when we were at the red light. i was trying to find out what all he was running, i guess alot, just no skills. lol. anyways thanks to all that helped out.

Those crummy Saleen cars suck - most guys are driving the S281 version, which is slower than our cars right out of the box. There is a guy with one in my town - I embarrassed him in front of all his friends.

I just installed the SLP line lock system in my car - it was incredibly easy! Can't wait to heat my drag radials up a bit more this year! Should cure the 60' problem I have... (see sig).
