    LOL

    OK, so last night was a slippery night. My friends Busa was spinning the tires off the line, a little mini rail couldn't even leave the tree without smoking the tires, a very nice toreno was running 12.5's, and even a Civic that raced me ran 12.8!!!! There was a slight breeze / head wind and tail wind and no wind...but it was a pretty good night.

    So with no good prep but good decent air for September, managed a PB on these DR's!!

    Ohh and last run sucked cause i was desperate and the clutch started stinking :CRAP!!:

    Shiat!

    OK with just 23 runs,...it will get bald with just 2 more visits!!!

    I need to learn NOT to do a long burnout! Tires are getting expensive!

    With an IRS brace and good sticky tires on a 500 RWHP cobra you shouldn't have any problems unless it starts to hop and you don't get out of it. I have found that drag radials can hop like a mother at the track.
