    If driving a blown front engine dragster is easy, everyone would be like a Stormin Norm Weekly. I'll be giving it a GO at the Kingdon Drags except on NITRO. Top Fuel driver's training. I hope Brian's dragster didn't have too much damage.

    It climbed the ring gear. More RPM's at the launch will shock the tires and chassis, giving you more forward motion and less upward.
    It is a nice looking car for sure. JC

    Yeah first time on those tires. Usually I leave a little harder than that. Just a foot movement problem, but on the old Radirs that I just took off It wouldnt have done that. Damn.

    Hey King, what are you running for tires, and what do you need to launch at with the direct drive for everything to go the way you want?
