easiest way to do it on the trans it to drop the entire rear subframe with the trans. The axles are a pain to even get to for one. When i pulled that whole setup before thats the way i did it. Just disconnect the suspension attached to the frame and drop the subframe with the trans, axles, brakes and control arms all together. Yeah you might be better off just dropping the entire drivetrain out to do all that. Do a clutch and whatever to the trans all at once.

Just to get back on topic, if any of you 400hp drag radial cars feel frisky, I'll put you to shame with my 250hp drag slick car lol.

yeah, 1.61 for me on slicks, and that was bogging just slightly because i came off 1/2 throttle on the two step just testing it out after i raised it to 6400. A full throttle launch at that rpm would have been perfect. low to mid 1.5's easy. You wont pull anywhere near those numbers on drag radials on a fwd car. Not a chance. Ive seen high 1.7' as i believe keval or gio was pulling those numbers on dr's 225/50/15's though if im not mistaken. But you wont get much better than that. They will just spin.

I thought you've been running drag radials on the street for the past few years?

I have. But theres always been some issue. Clutch slipping/you name it. So I never really got to go to the track and see what it could do for sure. Now that I had the car running perfect ovcoarse it doesnt work!

I got 1.7 60fts but i'm on slicks. I try not to move to hard out the whole. Gio runs on DRs but I can't remember his 60ft times. If i got a good launch i'm sure i would get at least a good 1.6 60ft.
