thanks matt,
the biggest prob i'm having is traction,i just cant get it to stick.no matter what i try.last night my friend brought over a pair of slicks,we put them on.i went out,heated the fuck out of them,and still spun through third.well mabey its me,so i think i'm going to let kj take it to the track one night,and see if he can tame it.

Question.. Your control arms, radious rods and lower strut forks... Did you buy aftermarket wider strut forks, that accepted the controller arm because the motor sat too foward and the stock parts when first done rubbed? Just curious>>

no wheel hop what so ever,its fucking bothering the shit out of me.like i said before when i put the slicks on I heated the shit out of them untill i can barley turn the car.when i did my whole shot it tacked out in 1st,hit second spun(i let off a little)caught third,the wheel itself spun on the inside of the slick(broke the bead)so i drove it about a 1/4mile on the left slick,and the bottem of the header untill i could pull off the road.
