yah ... my thoughts as well on the springs. if i do i'm gonna have to remove that high dollar exhaust i regret buying LOL. i only have about four inches clearance. haven't even considered the control arms .. think it will make a diff huh? i'm gonna change rims out with wifeys grocery getter tomorrow. they are red tho ... think they will clash with the purple tunnel ram? LMAO. the 14's will probably look better on the RS anyway. sick

ORIGINAL: SickSickSick

i have tried short burns, long burns, and no burns at all. have lowered the pressure to 15 pounds . if i finesse it off the line i can keep it from spinning but as soon as i go full throttle it breaks loose. i have no doubt about the tires tho. really not empressed by their quality. have made only a few runs. less than ten and they are getting quite worn atleast one of them is anyways. i seen in your vid how your front end rose while the rear dropped. i don't get anywheres near that kind of action. i get some lift from the front but the back doesn't squat at all. alot of racers have told me that i picked the wrong body to try and drag race. they say that 2nd gens are alot easier to get hooked and theres alot more tricks to them. nevertheless i'm gonna stick with it til it breaks me. sick
Thats BS, third gens are fine and can be made to hook just as well as a second gen.
