How? It's one of the first 420a drag cars. You don't think people have questions? I'm asking them. If you're skeptical thats fine but giving a personal opinion everytime doesn't contribute.

Please break 9's DSM ZERO. Please.

I honestly don't think why or where he spends his money is any of our business. If he wants to spend it one way then that's how he'll do it. No one is asking how any of you would spend it, so just let him do what he's been doing. It's easy to criticize from that side of the fence.


Nice to see I actually figured out what he was talking about with the co2.

ZERO- What type of wheels and tires are you running? Mickey Thompsons or..? Size(s)?

WOW, I'm suprised to hear a comment like that coming from you blitz, but I agree.

This is a forum for sharing technical advice, not show-and-tell. He's got to expect opinions from everyone he shares his project with. Most of us can certainly admire his endeavor, but I think the shop is taking him for a ride with some of the stuff. For someone with such lofty goals, I'd just like to see his money going toward more necessary parts. Given my opinion, he can take it or leave it, but it's worth hearing.

Everyone here is welcome to share their opinions, just as long as they aren't forced on anyone.

ZERO, what do you plan on going with for your suspension set-up?

How long til it see's the dyno now? I'm not going to go off what you said earlier because deadlines, especially when it comes to cars, usually change.

WELL....we do have big plans for the suspension...but I want to try and see the limits of the stock suspension then go from there. right now i have custom QA1 shocks and springs. when i say custom i mean valve size and rate along with the spring load.
but i do plan on doing a double bolt on double wish bone set up.

Well you said you were testing out limits of the stock setup first, thus why I said that. Don't want any confusion or misunderstanding from future readers and searchers that don't decide to read from page 1.
