1/4 Mile Video E92 N55 JB3 Stage 1

Last night after 3 hrs in traffic and another 2 hrs of wait at the drag strip, I finally got just 2 runs. I thought I'd do a little better but it was 84% humidity and I also couldn't get 100% traction in mid 1st gear. My times are on the left. Enjoy the vid even though it's not high quality.

What suspension are you on?

And, FWIW... if you have to reverse into the staging lights, please make sure you go far enough where you have to still drive FORWARD into them. If not, your trans/diff are preloaded in the wrong direction... a good way to do damage.
