Default Z28.. beat up by Shelby CSX Dodge Shadow

LOL.... This is horrible... Not really, because my buddy has put alot in his car.
Plus I am all stock. So Kennedale last night, Sunday night..

I have vredesstein 315-35-17 tires in the rear.. They would not hook up.
But I also noticed with 20 - 25 PSI in them, they spin harder then with full pressure in the tire...

1 thing learned.. these vredessteins are meant to be driven with full tire pressure in them!!!! I was all over like I have never been before..
Plus I ran a tenth slower with 20lbs then I did with 25lbs.

and was my first time out with this car.. I need to get the light down!!!!anyways.. here is some video... LOL...

buddies web site... he is a turbo guy... I will have NOS on our next race...

27meg file??? How long was the race?

And if you want to hook properly, I would recommend some Nitto drag radials....

I could not get the tires to hook up.. I would spin them right off, and have to let off to grip back down and go..

He has a slap shift tranny, with 25psi of boost on the turbo.....and alot of other crap.. too much for me to list.

but like I am planning, I will woop him when I get my NOS... LOL...
quickest, cheapest way for the extra horses.
