Most of you would have to show up to the track more then once to make a decent pass. Hell just understanding D.A. would be an accomplishment for some in understanding why you can't run a PB everytime out.

Sounds like fightin words....
Whats comical is you taking your street car and making it a "racecar" (I seem to remember you saying years ago you would NEVER take the AC out....), while I'm probably making my "racecar" into *moreso* a "Streetcar"....
Oh, and it will still spank ya. You run Slicks/DOTs, I'll use radials....
Leaving for Vegas tomorrow for the Divisional.... George is probably home by now after the National Event. Seems like I'm bringing a knife to a gunfight most days anymore.... Went to Vegas to run Pro Street on 10.5 Tires and 200lbs overweight (not that it mattered as some of you know).... Now going to run Top Sportsman on 10.5 tires (so much for consistent 60's for a bracket car)..... Then in a couple more weeks its down for SCSN where I'm about 3-500hp short of being in the hunt....
Oh well, I'll be able to
after first round. Hehe.

Yup I did not ever think it would happen...then one day my wife refused to get in the car. I DID drive it 75 Miles to work and out on a saturday night a few weeks ago.
Hey I will use Radials too! I will even use my street tires and wheels! TTIIs and Summitimo's or some thing like that.
First rule...You MUST finish the race on all four tires
::Running to hide under flame suit::

I sure hope to make some faster passes next year. Totally disapointed in the 9.87 @144 pass. We're hoping to step it up quite abit next year though.
This should help those full boost launches (When I brought it up on boost this year at the line it would one leg out of the hole)
28X13.50's
This should let me stop worrying about the fuel
Lets see what 30 psi can do...

You will love the 13.5s. I have a set on my car now and that spool you just showed(be it a 12 bolt) is going in the car next week 
For those who really do not know we are just talking crap. that is what we do in the off season. For the record KT, who I have known longer then I have known Arron, can produce a 6 second car at will He is a great guys and a great racer.
Then again my car SAYS it has 750Hp

You can open them in Paint & Stretch them down 50% (340k max?) & post them as attachments, or put them on your website & link to them.
Back to the subject, I'm trying to get on the rollers this month to get some baseline #s so I can do some REAL trash talking.
