    Not that anyones interested but took the car to the strip a few weeks back and managed a good time but prob couldve done better with better tyres & a tune beforehand but meh.

    Note: Stock rims were put back on as tyres had more tread than current black rims.

    & a pic of Russel Brand after one of his shows at the entertainment center, as he came round he stoped a literaly spoke to me for about a minute (alot considering he was only signing and going through the crowd quit quickly) he was asking me why i was the only guy that was standing there waiting for him who didnt look gay. funny guy.

    Not bad so far, get some sticker tyres on the rear, lower tyre pressure to get more contact when you launch.

    Assuming your in a manual, what is your 60ft time?

    How is your car launching with the setup you have now, bogging down not gripping at the start, etc?

    I love the drags, ive done some drag runs i mine and my bros v8 cars at the AIR when it was open but as we know SA doesnt have a dragstrip anymore not until our state government builds us a motorplex similiar to the dragstrip in WA

    The current set up is for circuit racing, the car isnt bogging down at the start its just that theres more than an optimal amount of wheel spin with every launch. tyre chirps through 2nd & 3rd gear changes, i think the coils are set to stiff imo, this is awesome on the track but shit for the strip.

    Only done this as a bit of fun, dont really plan on doing to much drag racing in the future, not in this car anyway.

    Cant remember what the 60ft time was sorry, tyre pressure was at 25psi
