Not to mention he's not loading it on the line at all, he's basically just punching it on the drop. That is a really fast car, its just deceiving because he's not pulling the front tires off the ground like he could be.

Stock rear end probably won't like wheel up launches too much.

Bubba... we really need to talk suspension sometime.  While the bottom line is really simple, it's really misunderstood.

You know I wouldn't turn down a suspension lesson from you. All my drag racing background is being on a motorcycle with a solid strut, lord knows I could use it. You name the time, I got the first two rounds.

What else could I have meant?  I have also been in that kitchen.  Small world.  Did you go there for your annual weirdo swedefest?  I attended random parts of those 2003-2006.  Good times were had.  I had a 940 at one point, sold it go a guy.  That guy then proceeded to sell it to Kenny, who took a sawzall to it and put a bottle on it.  Ran a 14.x IIRC.  I kind of liked that car too :(
