Well If the car was tubbed and had big tires like I do, its pretty tough not to roll the car once you get sideways at that speed. I don't really think what type of car it was had anything to do with it. Plus drag shocks really don't help, seems like people just get dumber every day on here.

And for your information the car lost traction because it spun the tires 600 ft down the track, which is most likely something that no one in this thread would know anything about.

Now run off somewhere else and be a punk we are all full here.
werd! im sure they know all about it with their import muscle cars which none of them probably never been in a 8-9 sec car, maybe a 13-14 sec car, so they wouldnt know about havin to deal with their tires breakin loose. so im with you on this one scott!

Actually, that happens a lot quicker than you would think. I had a very similar incident, but was able to straighten it out... Joe could see the entire side of my car three times from the starting line though...


obviously silverweak328 hasn't a clue...

holy shit. Glad he's ok.
I've seen that happen before... Sometimes the VHT isn't applied the full length of the track, so the 2nd or 3rd shift is after the vht line = wheel spin and loss of control.
