do you hear the tires locking up? no ya dont. I was coming up on a light and needed to stop kinda quick. and where the hell do you see me going 140+MPH?

Depends on the mods, if it was a bolt-on car with a cam or small shot of nitrous i would def pick the 4.30's for the 1/4 mile. But wouldnt beable to go past 120-125mph. for a power adder car i would pick the 3.73's or 4.10's. My fully built 290 stroker block is done so i will be putting a 150 shot of nitrous on it for this year and then my turbo set up will be done so i went with 3.73 gears.

@bttawfiq- i was on my drag radials, with two people in the back seat that weigh a good bit. and my car just HOOKED, and the weakest link had to give in. so i torn afew teeth off :/

the both have their pro's and con's. With 4.30's every gear would pull amazingly, VERY good on the track. but would only pull to 120-122mph

when i put the 3.73's i didnt really notice that much of a difference in acceleration. and i can hit 130mph at the top of 4th. so in short, i like the 3.73's much more.

@n1sm0buddie im not saying hey bro lets just rip the ebrake all the way up!! cause going into ditches is fun :D.... common sense tells you not to do that i mean easing into it at 140 that wont fuck up the cable to the ebrake or nothing thats all im worried about

[n1sm0buddie]

@boostedpsi99 ..Because locking the rear wheels down at 140+ is ALWAYS a good idea. -_-

[boostedpsi99]

is it safe to use the ebrake so slow down at 140+ i pump the breaks but i go through so many rotoars and pads doing that i need a new tecnique

@carerragted damnit haha

[carerragted]

@Chadb89 i have no clue

[Chadb89]

@carerragted haha mine actually does that too, i filled mine up and checked for leaks all good but it still does it...then what?

[carerragted]

@SVT1RAClNG thats because you brake fluid is low fill that up and it wont do it anymore.
