Nice for a show. All that motion up takes away from motion going forward. :dunno: rather see wheels up alittle and hauling ass forward.

There are other ways around it. It takes a little time but the car will be faster in the end. At least up to a point. I realize once you get so fast there is no way around it. But I have seen 4 sec 1/8 mile cars run with no bars.

That was nice Morey. I have seen something real close to that right in front of me at shadyside dragway. I was so mad at my self. I was video taping and when I saw him pull up I decided not to tape him because when he ran earlier it didnt do mutch. But he sprayed on that pass. When it went up on the bumper it turned around and came back down on its roof. It stoped right in front of me with my video cam in hand.

I really enjoy watching these guys run. To bad they were having issues with the new setup at grudgefest in jackson because I was looking forward to watching them run again. Here are two good videos...

set your suspension up right and you don't need them. set your tune right and you damn sure don't need them. And you can make anything work on a drag radial too with the right combos.
