got to use my M&H drag radials today. all passes were deep staged and im still wokring on the burnouts. tires seemed to spin just enough before hooking. but still some more in them, i know it

That's some funny stuff right there....I was actually thinking that exact thing when I saw those tires sell.

Congrats on the win!! That's a killer pay out for three rounds

what class where you racing in???

IMSM Street Brawler its a 13.50 index class

Is this that .4 Pro tree class? It looks like you might be able to get closer to that 13.50 index if you didn't deep stage it but you're R/T's will be a little further off, give and take. If you can stage as shallow as you can but make the adjustment to leave a little sooner on that tree, you'll be unbeatable.

Congrats on the win. It feels great, doesn't it?

yea thats a pro .400 tree. and i pretty much have to deep stage other wise ill get destroyed on the starting line. but yea, im sure once i get the hang of my burnouts and can imporve my 60' times i should be closer to the index. might get a set of control arms or some minor suspension stuff as i picked up another sponsor over the weekend too.

it feels great to finally win an event.
