1.04 dragster

1.10 firebird

1.18 Dart

those 3 are motor only passes

I hate wheelie bars but was forced to use them on the Firebird after smashing the oil pan on a nitrous launch. Did go 1.07 with them on.

Just a 1.29 in the 3300lbs Challenger footbraking to 2500rpm and letting her rip. This was on ladder bars, double adjustable coilovers, and M/T pro drag radial.

1.33 best for my smallblock Dart Sport at 3000rpm footbraking with same rear suspension and more tire. Haven't left with the transbrake with the new motor yet.

Except for Brad's street car, I have the slowest 60 ft. posted.
It would appear I have alot of room for improvement before I
"need" wheelie bars.

By all means, keep posting your times/pictures.

Please explain this, what determine which tires see the 60' beams Is the height of the wheelies that determine which tire sees the beam first?
