    Going Drag Racing, need to know how to do a burn-out with stick

    Like I said "(actually a few yards less than an eighth)" Did not get out and measure with a tape. But the times were given to me by the track, not me. Also why I stated that the 1/4 would probably be 17 seconds.

    Going Drag Racing, need to know how to do a burn-out with stick

    Sorry, my misunderstanding. I thought you were trying to burnout at the pole. With my car, there is no need to even try and heat up the tires. I run stock all season radials. My best time at the 1/8 (actually a few yards less than an eighth) is 5.75. Car is pretty much a girlie car... missing...

    Going Drag Racing, need to know how to do a burn-out with stick

    Sorry guys, I don't get it. Why do you want to do a burn out at the drag strip? Thought a burnout was lost HP and Torque that reduced ET. I have only run at the local track with my 6 banger. Usually when I ended up "burning out" I lost time. :shrug:

    interior colors

    1966 Mustang Exhaust System

    Thanks, I'll check out the Web Sites. Any one know what the most quiet muffler is? Not really into noise, just don't want to choke the engine with restrictive pipes or muffler for the sake of quiet ride.

    1966 Mustang Exhaust System

    I hate it up here too! Unfortunately thats where the job is. I will be running the car in some bracket racing at the local track, so the 4.56 gears will be helpfull there. Most likely will not be doing any highway driving. Mostly around town and to cruise nights. As far as noise... loud...
