Is methonal hard on motors?

Not if you get the tune right and make sure the motor or oil is sufficiently warm before you make a pass.

looks like you guys had to run some pretty good size spacers up front? rear looks like they fit fine.

Actually, there are no spacers at all. The tire sticking out was a alignment issue with the coilovers, it has since been corrected :ohdamn:

Wow! Great run! That's moving for sure. I can't believe how deep in the eights these cars are going on a regular basis. Nice work and good luck with it this year.

Just a little video update since it has been a while. We were fighting some issues last season with ignition breakup (Fixed thanks to Spark Tech!) and thrust bearing failure that kept us from making much in terms of improvements. But we have those issues sorted now and have been making plenty of consistent passes and driving the car on the trailer at the end of the day which is a win in our minds. Now there are some upgrades on the way that will hopefully get us closer to that magical 7 second ET. Can we change the title of this thread to 7's or bust LOL?
