You should look into a Detroit Tru track as well. The best all around diff for street/track use. Nice MPH anyway.


As for langley, they don't do drag racing. They have 1 0n 1 drags, but it's on a circle track.

Richmond dragway, VMP, and MIR are the closest 1/4 mile tracks to us.

Congrats. It feels great breaking into the 12's doesn't it?

I'll be trying to get into the low 12's the next two weekends.

The car's got a lot left in it.

I'm willing to bet some pretty small stuff will get you in the mid-low 12's easily.

How is this possible? Why were you unable to do a burnout?

If i eased into the brake, it would pegleg, and if I didn't hit the brake at all, it would push though the beams. just couldn't get the car to sit still.
