Re: 2.73 car pulling a wheel

Nice 60ft. What RPM are you hitting the dope in 1st? Are you hitting it off the line with a stock stall? If so I don't see how the car doesn't cough, being that the nitrous is being hit so low in the rpm range. Leaving hard though so whatever works for you.

To each his own. I've personally seen a few fireballs from activation at too low of rpm.

your car is already hooking hard...I would try to improve your mph by making more HP or reducing weight....the new gears will also help that mph!

nice runs !

Re: 2.73 car pulling a wheel

yeah, but the new posi, and gears would help matters

stall is just for fun...the gears is what's killing my trap speed, the car falls on its face when i shift into 3rd gear.

Re: 2.73 car pulling a wheel

pulling the wheels is not in suspension. If anything crazy suspension interferes with wheel pulling. With stock suspension i pulled the front left almost 10" and almost pulled the passenger side. I have stock suspension with relocation brackets. MT ET street Radials and Bogart skinnies up front.

Skinnies do make wheel pulling alot easier though.
