Gregg, I dont know if the weather will be letting anyone go to the track this weekend. But I guess ya never know. At the moment its snowing pretty good here, got almost 2 inches on the ground, crazy winter. That and I still need to buy tires and a few other things.

Your car is a little to fast for that green track, don't bring it out till April. You do anything new to it?

I would go with the M/T drag radial, they worked better than the et streets and qtp, atleast on my car!!! Do you already have a c4? Jeff Wagner has his built c6 with two convertors for sale, I'm sure you could pick it up pretty cheap. I believe it is fully rollerized and its already freshend.

I have MT radials now and they wont allow me to leave on the brake. I figured the bias-ply of the QTP would soak some of the shock up and allow me to leave with a little boost. I do already have the C4 but I still might be interested. You talk to him often? Know what he might be asking by chance? I did see a video someone on this site had of his car running an 8.80. He only shifted once so I figured he went glide. Was good to see that car running again.

I dont have a 2step anymore, like most MSD products it died. I just want to leave on the transbrake at like 2500-2700 rpms which is like 4 psi or so. My 275-50-15 MTs told me they didnt like it by spinning John Force style. So I foot braked it all day leaving at like 2k-2300 rpms. Maybe they were too far gone at the point, I dont know.

Maybe, thats one of the options I was looking at. But I would probably have to put the 3.55s back in, now it was the 3.27s. How many passes would you say you got out of a set before you noticed they were starting to go away?

Thats true, I dont even have half that. I think my biggest downfall with this last pair was how much I drove it on the street with them. I should just make them strip only.
