One of my buddies in high school had a Comet, we could power brake that thing and leave black marks all the way across the parking lot. lol fun times.

OP.....you should of ad a V8

Do what the ricers do, only spin the tires in the rain.
60% of the time it works every time.

To the original poster - don't take these posts as serious by the way. If you do, you will also be picking up pieces of your drive train off the street, but you will leave a big mark on the pavement while doing this.

Or have all your buddies sit on the hood and lift on the back of the car like the ricers to to transfer the weight since the car is so weak it can't do it otherwise.. lol!

/\ good way for someone to get hurt

It's all fun and games until somebody gets run the hell over!

OP, this is a great S197 forum with a lot of guys with good info on here. Don't let this thread scare you off. You may want to try reading what's out there. You will probably find what you're looking for or someone with a similar set up.

Heck, early on, I started a thread in tech that shouldn't have been there, and luckily, it got moved before I got flamed too bad. Lesson learned. I read a lot more than I post in tech now.

Yep, I've often wondered why those idiots do that knowing if they guy in front falls down or something happens someone's gonna get run over.

shute, my 05 V6 auto w/just bolt ons and 100,000+miles will roast the tires out of the hole and i`m running 275/50-17`s on the back. but i always barely got a little bite in 2nd even with the 3.73 gears in it, till i got my trans rebuilt couple months ago. now i get a mean bite in 2nd and 3rd which has made it even more fun. i did have them bump the stall speed a couple hundred too.your car came with a 3.31 gear, which isnt all that bad. your car is pretty new too so you shouldnt have a trans issue so not sure what to think, but at the track i come off the line and half way down side by side with the little 281 v8`s

you just need more parts,lol. you might want to try some decent control arms, maybe the suspension is too sloppy. the upr chrome molys are pretty sweet
