    Thanks guys!

    Hopefully I can add some value here. I'm not a drifter, but have attended drifting events. I am an NHRA member, and race often.

    Happy to add info about anything I can. Just annoyed that we don't race in Indy again until April. May have to roadtrip south.

    Part of my plans include buying a trailer so I can drive to more drag racing events around the country this coming season. I could no longer gamble that stuff won't break and leave me stranded.

    Which feeling? The worry that something WILL break. Or the realizatio nthat something DID break? LOL

    So far I've only had the former. But at 750 ft-lbs of torque, my halfshafts have been swearing at me.

    Congrats to you Matt. I to am an avid Dag Racer. I use to driver to the track my 1971 Ply Duster that had a 446 cubic inch Big Block (440) that had on some mild aftermarket mods and a 250 shot of N20. Through the exhaust on M & H Racemaster DOT Street Tires it ran 11.23 @ 122.76, drive it there and drive it home. This was back in 1986, a long time ago.

    Regards
    Chuck

    Yeah I saw it......from the looks of it the fabricator was looking at doing an overkill cage in between the 9.99 cage and the 10.0 cage.......which is ok,but a bit heavier.
