well I went 3.73's first because 1. I got a great deal on them and 2. I heard so many horror stories about fuel milage and rpm's. I must say those people have never had 4.10's. for in town driving they are perfect.

I had to pull myself out of the car long enough to come in and eat.. and get ready for the track tonight

wish me luck I am shooting for 1.8 sixties at least and a 12.8

Good luck, man! Run a few for me, I may not be in my car until April...

I just got bad news about my gear install (4:10s also) - it seems as though the Motive gears that I got (Partshopper.com, actually) were "off" and had a lot of slop in them. So they're gonna take them off & see if they can machine them a little bit. If not, I'll be going for the FRPP 4:10s and waiting another week...

Not that I know of. It's a guy at a place called Skinny's Garage - very reputable place for gear installs in my area.

I have heard alot of people having trouble with Motive's lately. your are the 4th person in a month to be exact. sorry to hear that.. it is worth the wait!!

Well I got in a few good passes tonight, and all I know for sure is my next mods are a decent set of adjustable shocks(suggestions? ) and some ET streets on a 16" rim. I cant get her out of the hole on the current setup and it is costing me about a half second of ET. anyway best run

1.94 60'
13.007 ET (SOOOOO CLOSE )
106.8 MPH (really excited about that)

Damn, your almost there! I got some Tokico 5 way adjustibles on mine, thus far they've been great for either road racing or drag. What RPM are you launching at, do you have a lot of tire spin?

Nice run, except for that 60ft time... Once you're able to get some traction you should have no problem hitting 12.5!

The Motives went in this morning - there was a high spot on them that my buddy had machined down. They fit like a glove now & I should have it back this afternoon! Woo-hoo!

get a set of Maximum motorsport drag launch LCAs and get rid of your quad shocks... then get adjustable shocks and slap on the ET streets and 12s will not be a problem. nice times still
