CRAPPY TIRES!

i need some motor mounts an better tires the wheel hop really sucks!





im pretty happy with that.. i know i have room for improvement, just going to take a little practice and some cash


i will have videos later when my friend edits them for time an puts them together an sticks them on youtube

heres some video of me racing my friend, his r/t is way better then mine but he's done this before..

Not bad, a little slower on the trap speed but close to what i ran with a similar setup back in the day. I think I was running a little more advanced timing though.

a couple of my runs i got 96+mph but that run i shifted early, if i could of stayed longer im sure i could of got a better run.. practice practice practice..

96 sounds more like it... sounds like it is running good. Keep at it.

dont dump the clutch out ride it out kinda slow... i do that and my wheel hope is gone, but dont ride to long

and you know your reaction time sucks. you need to leave on the 3rd yellow light.

thanks, will do


ya i figured out how to ride the clutch just enough to launch without spinning the tires a whole lot.. but theres still a bit of wheel hop.. im sure my stock 19 year old motor mounts dont help..


ya my r/t does suck.. i will be workin on that

thanks for the replys guys

get you some prothane mounts and you'll be good to go,no more wheel hop

yep thats the plan, i wont be going back to the track until next year so i've got pleanty of time.. the se-r will sit under the car port until the rain an snow are gone.. i dont feel like takin the cai off to drive in the rain (my filter sits lower then most) and the cars so low its not a good idea to drive in the snow.. so ya when tax time comes im gonna get more stuff so i can run a bunch next year
