just make sure you get some good practice launches on em before really trying some hard launches, cause unless youre use to them, they become axle, and clutch eaters!

start off with some like jake had, some 20x8x14s, those are real stock axle friendly and still provide plenty of hook. much better than a drag radial, also due to the size, they get you out of the hole faster and shorten the final drive.....

its all about gearing and math for my car cause i dont make enough HP!!!!!

them bitch's sucked though , they were old and busted, i was still pulling 2.0 60ft's though...im sure i could have gotten down to 1.8's or 1.9's with more seat time though....they were also kinda wore out. I say get some new 20x8's and it should hook pretty good , being that u can launch and its a Stock ls so it wont spin as bad.

I learned from your old setup that it dont take 6548923465 HP to run a good time.Just some traction and decent driving.And yea Im going to start out with the small slicks thats all I should need anyways.

You didn't miss much. Fastest hondas there were Kris w/ a 12.5 on slicks at 107ish once he put slicks on... Also slocxhatch running 12.8s on what looked like DRs, I could be wrong.

There was some nice domestics. Especially the red vette that couldnt stay in it.

THE MOST impressive import there was Jerry's yellow Mirage by far. That thing is just plain stupid. Full interior,93 octane, fully inflated street tires...10.4 @ 133mph. nuff said

And the funny thing is, Jerry didnt even launch it on that run, and he let out a little early... Thats a bad bitch
