I've taken it to the track a couple times, had little problems to trouble shoot everytime, last time it was good, just no traction. So now that I think I have everything in line, I might throw some small slicks I have laying around and see what it can do this Friday. It's our tracks last night street legals of the season so I'm hoping for something good. Wish me luck!!

I'll try to get a vid of a run or two. Hoping for the best but this years been bad luck everytime.

I think my timing is off just a touch but I can't quite figure it out. Some night this week I'm gonna throw it on the alignment rack and try to get some simple things aligned better. Camber is out of the question ha but my tow is off for sure so I'm gonna try to get that a littler better.

This winter I might tear some things down and redo some stuff but still undecided yet

Had a shitty night, only made 3 passes, had problems every time. Oh well. Next year I'll come out more ready and tougher. Looking for good passes next year

Very impressive build. How is traction? Have you ran it in a 1/4?

Great build. What paint did you use on the wheels? Makes me want to convert mine and turbo it but rather keep it for looks and dd.
