      I wouldn't be surprised if james owned the only front engine rwd car that had more weight distribution to the rear. [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]

        Next time I'm at the track.... I should pull half the car on the scale and try and get a 50/50 split weight.... won't be effective..... best way is individual scales in all four corners.

        The car is damn light!

          you'd be surprised. the car weighs almost nothing.

            lol I'm not saying it can't be done, but you can't blame me for being skeptical lol.

            Its not everyday you see a car that is only trapping mid 90s pull a wheel, even if it is just a lil bit.

              Not everyday you see a v6 with that much weight reduction. So yea believe the tire coming off the ground man.

                no offense james, i have known you for a long time man. but i too am skeptical about yanking the fronts on a 1.9 short time. i can't think of a car that i have worked on or seen that pulled the fronts with anything more than a mid/low 1.7.
                next time you are heading to the track let me know. i would love to be proven wrong. :D

                          I believe it, I remember a video of Magnus (Keith) pulling a tire running a mid-high 13, something like that. He has a lot of weight reduction as well. Get enough traction and it can happen. He probably just got his power to the ground VERY suddenly. Good job!! Nice times!
