pick a car, I just said they were OVER 250.... I think it will be a shootout between my cars on which one breaks 650 first.

Do you own a Torch Red FRC and tremble every time you drive under I75 on Hwy 60 and look in your rearview mirror? If so you are suffering from what is known as Cobraphobia.

I'm running a completely stock rear end (2.73 gear, worn TracLok, stock axles) in my Coupe. I run NT555R's on the rears and trap between 113 and 116. I'd imagine that it takes a lot of hard launches on slicks to break the stock axles, but the TracLok's don't last very long in stock form. I just got my rebuild kit in the other day, and I'll be adding extra clutches to the TracLok before it gets reinstalled. I know of one person who uses this method with the stock axles and a 3.XX gear with over 700RWHP and no problems whatsoever; (except traction).

I am sure some of u if not all know this.
The simple 1 wheel peel can be avoided if you go around the water pit, or through, doesnt matter but if u have collectors than u dont gotta worry bout goin through water, but for the normal Z rated or whatever, I'd say go around water so people dont gotta get in ure water to race, but anyway go around the box, then back into the box, straight.
this will lock the diff, causing a straight burnout instead of a veering to one side while power breaking like me(heh no line lock yet) .
anyone got line lock they wanna sell? how much they run anyway?I got all wheel disc conversion, so I know im killn the rotors everytime....
