If Richmond Dragway is open on New Years Day, who is going? This would be a good place to have a meet, and get some passes in. They have some good track food too!

Why did you go from an ET Streets to a radial?

I've had the radails for years now and wanted to try the bias ply to see if the less weight was worth it.

Oh and the 275's that I'll be on will be 275-40-17 :brows:

ill have M/T 275-60s. i know they will work better than the bfg drag radials which were on it the last time it was at the track.

Eventually looking for 9's. People have gone plenty fast with 18" DRs in the past I wanna see what it'll do with these at first. I'll prob have some rear 15s on hot stand by also though, lol.

LOL yea I would like to get into the 8's. My real goal is to be able to take the true street trophy home at the LSX shootout but that will take time.

The LSx community is so competitive these days. It is really tough to place in an event like that. I wish you the best of luck, I would love to see you do that. It takes some deep pockets like yours :D

LOL I'm a E5 in the navy so I do not have deep pockets... Almost 4 years to build this car.

Yea i was just looking at the times the other day. Pretty sure Mighty Mouses car can go way faster than what he put down to... Guy who placed third was in a Procharged LSx, thirdgen.
