And I don't even want to guess what it'll run on the jug until I can get it to hook out of the hole. Baby steps lol....

I have no idea what it's putting down for hp, never made it to the dyno. I can say with a certain amount of confidence that it's making around 480 at the wheels as-is.

damn that's pretty good I belive that your putting down that much. Are you running wrinkle walls now, because in one of the vids I thought I notice that you were or was your air pressure down alot?

Part of the reason was that the car didn't have a drag race type rear sway bar. I just built my own drag sway bar this last week. Hopefully that will eliminate the axle twist, keep both tires planted longer and keep the front of the car level at launch. I'll find out this weekend if it works or not. If it does work I should be driving home with a 10 sec timeslip. Mike

It's pretty close to that hp at the wheels. The last time out it was going through the traps at nearly 126mph. I'm running bias ply ET Streets at 12psi. The current suspension setting is hitting the rear tires really hard and then unloading. In slow motion you can see the driver side tire being pushed down so hard that the tire is squished almost flat for about 1 frame.

I tried one in the PS rear. Didn't help my car at all and my 60' times were all over the place with that thing. Tried different bag pressures, different tire pressures and nothing was working with that air bag.

I didn't even know they made a bias tire in that size. Learn something new everyday lol....
I need to get some video editing software so I can capture some of my launches frame by frame and post'm up. It's pretty crazy to see a tire getting flattened to the pavement on the initial hit lol.... I can watch it frame by frame in windows media player, just don't have the software to capture it.
Yeah man, everyone's been telling me to go to Woodburn lol... Just about everytime I'm at PIR I get at least 1 racer saying I'd be running 10.80's 10.90's at Woodburn lol...
