Re: The newest drag racer gears up!
Ben doing a gear change! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] We put the new engine on and went from a 6.0 gear down to a 4.55, but didn't see the mph we wanted. So, we went even further with a 4.33 gear! Still blew the tires off at the hit - even before breaking the beams, with only 6 pounds of air! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/eek.gif[/img] Traction issues.... We eventually hooked when they prepped the line and we moved to 5 pounds, this really wrinkled the tires - made me wish I had bead lock rims installed....
