I have a tire lol when I went on the cruise I had my 305 drag radials on. The car dead hooks off the bottle on them in first, havent tried on the bottle yet with them. problem is, with 3 hours of having those tires on my car, it nearly finished my rear end. all I am saying is, if I wanted a dedicated, dig nasty car I would have went with a stalled auto. You simply cant beat them from a dig. With a strong rear end, the right gear, good cam/nitrous and a good tire, it would be nearly impossible to beat on the streets and the track. 99% of the single digit domestic drag cars are stalled auto’s for a reason. Not 6 spd’s. ---

The tire is not the only thing you need to be able to hook/leave the line well from a dig. The stalled auto eliminates and slip up or misuse of a clutch. The 4:11’s help getting it through the gears a hell of a lot faster. The rear eliminates a higher risk of breaking the ass end of the car when you have a ton of power such as smokin, dead hooking out of the hole. Just tires wont solve the problem. ---

well my car is done for the year but i would be happy to run him at the track if he would be down for it next year. slicked out civics on the street are a no go and i spent way to much $ this year to keep my license so i cant put that in jeopardy again. ---

Fuck drag racing. If I keep my shit pile I want to redo the suspension for handling. Really Id like to get rid of it and maybe get something else eventually thats already better set up for handling, like a '95-'99 ACR Neon or maybe get a Shelby Charger and make it handle. I think theres just too many wrong parts for handling already in my car. Ive never had any luck drag racing my car. All I get are slow timeslips and blown clutches. ---
