    well ive never hooked on drag radials so i left on the stage limiter which is setup for slicks (6,000) excpecting it to blow them up. It was first round qualifying so i didnt care just wanted to see what the radials would do well they hooked and broke a 400hp axle . I never expected that to happen at all and no im not in a 7 second car just saying i run this track all year and for this track it was hooking thats all.

    252plus hp and 34.5 miles to the gallon all motor. 12.2 at 111

    Congrads brotha... I dont want the thread to be about a seasonal race car v.s. a full blown drag car hooking on whatever type of tires. I 've raced many tracks and if you were to see the car slide from the 8th down you would know what Im talking about. A 400hp street car with open axles lsd or open diff is a breeze to tame v.s. a 4digit hp scaled chassie car solid rearend with a spool on slicks. Its not my first rodeo i have a bit of knowledge how much a track has been prep, dragged, sprayed, and blown and how much power to put down....
    The event was great love the import scene no more attacks on the tracks preparation it was supposed to be constructive ...... lord
