  • New best :D

    Picked up a new personal best last night. Have a video of it, but haven't been able to upload it yet. Anyways, they were only running 1/8th mile :(, but I went 9.622. That's with almost no engine sensors (clicky for more info)!! Personal best before that was 15.124 in the 1/4, that 1/8th time translates to about a 14.9~15.0. Besides the sensor issues, the only difference was I put on my DR's (275/50-15's on Weld Racing rims). Once I get my sensor issue worked out, I'm adding nitrous. Hoping to break 14.4 with that :D.




    BTW- Any tips on heating up DR's? I've held the brake while spinning them in the water, yet I can't seem to hold them long enough to get them heated decently.

      Ya, was wondering if you guys had any free advice though :P. I'm looking into a line-lock, but don't have any spare $$ ATM :(. Any chance I could build one if I had an extra 'noid lying around?

        Cool, congrats! What mods do you have again? I want to run my 02' convertible soon just to see what it does. It's pretty much stock though..

              Dont do a burnout in the water.

              Roll em through the water or do a quick spin in the waterbox then pull up a few feet and light them up. Burning out in the water will still have water on the tires when you leave the water box, lol...not what you want.
