WOW! That's hard to believe.

Now you know why I will be using a back-half/4 link car on 14X32's with a Slant motor. I MIGHT be able to hook there.

Was a car club track rental. They prepped the track in the morning and it was great till about 11am. I think all the street tire cars(a lot) took there toll on it. I sure wish they would have a slick only test and tune day!

when we started at 9 am the track was sticky to walk on but after about 11ish our 60 fts started to go away .walking the starting line showed the stickiness was gone . about 80 street tired cars were running trough the water box and you know what that does to the track . the club did not have the extra cash that denny wanted to spray the track which by the way was done as soon as the club cars vacated the track.so i'm sure when you got there the surface was sticky again.i think the fastest car there that day ran an 8.60 but wound up putting it on the trailer as the surface went away.had you been there then maybe you would not have rained on my post and felt some need to be insulting . lots of guys on moparts just like you .

and ya i might not be the race car god you consider yourself to be but i still race and have a good time and if anyone is high it would be you as you seem to be high on your self

nobody was crying only making an observation

nice video qwk have you played with shock adjustments? probably has nothing to with launch but it looks like the front end (by the way the tires are setting in the video)sets funny. how do you have the alignment set? it's hard to get a car set up to run good on all tracks. the better the suspension and parts the easier it is imo. if your running leaf springs it will be challenging. I know I know lots of people running fast on them. remember everybody has opinions so don't get all reved up when they do..

hey quicktree,
i have a home made ladder bar setup with QA1 single adjustable front and rear
thats what we were doing that day , playing with the shock adjustments . i usually cut 1.40-1.44 60's and under the of guidance of bobo (MENDEZ MOTORSPORTS)we got it to 60 with a solid 1.36 . in the video i got a good launch and then it got a little loose . it got worse after that as the street tire guys were dragging water to the line. so we quit tuning and just played around , my car will run 10.40's starting out in 2nd.

also my home made front end does not have a lot of travel due to the angle of the upper balljoint and in the video i had removed the limiter to see how it would react.next time i will footbrake it to see the diff of not using the brake.

i do most of my own work and take it personal if someone belittles my car or me . i don't claim to be any big time race car guy only a lowly hotrodder PEACE

I may be a waxer at heart but i can and have put racers on the trailer but never Lonnie

it's all good, I don't think Ron intended to belittle you or the car. looks like you may need to tighten the bump on the shocks a little and see what it does. kind of trial and error messing with these things. what works on one car may not work on another. good luck and keep us posted. I do all my own work also (be it right or wrong I have to live with it )

Rob, if you can take your car to 41 in the day time and run it all the way to the end you'd be my new hero.

I'm betting you can't though.
