Put it on a radial and I'll bet u go faster 60ft and et.

What's the best Radial the ET Pro's? I am running stiffwalls currently and they are a motherfucker to do a decent burnout in... The non stiffwall 28's that I was running shredded in the burnout box! Went to the track on Friday and with a somewhat decent burnout I gained a full mph. Car has a small header leak on one primary now and backfires sometimes on deceleration, need to fix that!

Pro bracket is the best now. It's not really considered a true radial since it's not grooved like a radial for like x275. Looks like a slick does not require a tube either

U don't need to do big butnouts with these tires. Small burnout just enough to get the tire to smoke a little then roll out of it. 18psi seems to be perfect tire pressure

Bought a ripper aluminum trailer today! :fy: Bigtime upgrade over the other trailer we use for our small bobcat. It has a Husky 5000# Power leveler, a Trailer Valet for making it easy to move around and has a Superwinch in a custom box up front. 2015 7000gvw custom built trailer, has sweet little L.E.D marker lights all over it.:wackit: You can store the ramps up front for use as a rock shield.

New parts to go on for the Nitrous kit and switching from 8an to 6an fittings and black braided carb feed lines to clear the plate without a spacer, not enough room with the larger 8an which isn't needed. Installing 3 aeromotive regulators. Will also be making a relay panel and putting in billet crossmeber trans bushings.

Wiring is complete and ready to spray, well it's been ready but I've been busy with other things. I went to go make some runs this past Sunday and the stock mini starter I was using quit on me before I loaded up for the track...:angrys00ls: so I bought a Powermaster starter which is the only one that fits Kooks headers other than the stock one. Installed that tonight so the car is ready to rock. Too bad GLD is now only open on the weekend with weather permitting...

:fy:Made some Nitrous passes at GLD today and got one halfway decent run after the wheelie... it should run pretty good once I get to make some more passes in it to get the progressor dailed in. Going to make some wheel travel limiters and get a Vacuum pump setup for it next.

Holy hell, those launches :bowdown:

Thanks, I was pedaling them wheelies of course because of my sumped tank and lines would prolly end up getting destroyed and leak fuel down the track if I stayed in it which would not be good... I'll be changing to a fuel cell by spring time. Car comes down pretty soft, I'm running QA1 front coil overs up front and lol it's still on some stock replacement KYB Gr2 shocks in the rear which will be changed out for some Strange 10way adjustables.

Tech guy said there were a few people that were complaining about the track prep...:dunno: it worked fine for me...:rofl::rofl::rofl:

If u ever need another sumped tank let me know. Lol. Just a heads up. Where the he'll is the instant center set at lmao. Jesus way to agresive for the track but would work great on the street.

I never looked into it as the upper and lower control arms are just Steeda tubular non adjustables. Planning on changing them over to chromoly adjustable uppers and lowers over winter when I weld in the UPR torque box reinforcement kit I bought a few months back.
