I would guess more like a 1.8...only because he carried the front tires ACROSS THE beam!

Re: Got hook????? (wheelsup)
The wheelie bars are maintaining a nice controlled wheelstand without any concern that the car will go totally vertical again. The wheels are carried out to the 60' clocks. On some occasions the front tires do not trip the 60' clocks, but some other part (headers,rear tires,etc) will trip it. This results in a slower 60' time.
The launch actually feels less violent and more controlled than my launches with the 350/6spd ,5000rpm launch combo.
Thanks everyone.

Re: Got hook????? (red L98)
It's a 18 degree head motor. NO juice....don't need it...it's fast enough without it.
