Noice.



If you don't mind the disclosure, what wheel and tire set up are you running and what sizes are they.



I am wondering what kind of ET Street, ET Drag or Quicktime Pro will fit on a stock FD wheel with no "issues" like rubbing or what not

Sweet videos and good times.

26 x 11.5 x 16 is the biggest you can go w/o rubbing. M/T doesn't make 16" in ET Drag anymore so your only choice is the ET Street.

Can't do any video's until I get my turbo back. I sent it off to get it fixed since I have about .25" of side play because someone connivently kicked it when it was laying on the ground causing it to off balanced.

Wierd MPH's there

rotor_dee 10-01-2003 09:11 PM

Probably lifted due to complications that is why the mph is so low.

I can't run 9's yet until I get a new cage put in since mine isn't legal and I didn't want to get disqualified. I'm getting a new cage put in over the winter and I still need to take weights off my car so with 300lbs off the car and a little more boost, 150+mph shouldn't be a problem (which means I have to get a parachute too).....it never ends....

vosko 10-02-2003 06:20 PM

parachutes are cool!

rotor_dee 10-02-2003 09:18 PM

You will also need to get the chassis certified by nhra and get a nhra competition license. It is kinda pain to get the license. You have to get your doctor to do a physical then go to the track and do all your runs 6 total 2 soft launches 2 half track and 2 9.99 or faster. I had to go through this before the 2001 season but I'm glad to have it over with because once it is out of the way you can go to any race and not have to worry about anything.



Good luck with the new setup,
