I only got 2 runs in today at Island Dragway because it was very crowded. Temperature outside was 63 degrees. Overall, again, I'm very pleased with the results. Here they are:

Yeah, it is definately a cloud nine experience...I'm looking into getting a roll bar now.. [img]graemlins/naughty.gif[/img] Anyone know how much they weigh? I don't really want to add more weight.. but if it's like 30lbs or so, maybe I can figure out a reduction elsewhere..or just live with the extra weight along with the safety. :cool:
I think the shipping weight on a Wolfe is 60lbs. You can get about 1/2 of that back if you go with a lightweight BMR k-member. And most of the rest of it with a lightweight dynabat battery. That's my game plan anyway... :D
That's a good amount of additional weight, but I don't think that'd be saying goodbye to 11's [img]graemlins/stickpoke.gif[/img] In fact, it might hold the car together a little better... how bout' RK Sport's rollbar? Is that one lighter or about the same??
Pretty sure the RK sport bars are only 4pt. You'll need a 6 pt to be NHRA legal. For some reason I was thinking that the Wolfe chrome moly one was only 47lbs (been doing a little roll bar shopping myself lately).
EDIT: Just checked, 4 pt in 40-45lbs, 6 pt is 55-60lbs (chrome moly weld in)
