Pauly, It was set at 19 psi. I have some more room. I've been creeping up on it.

Dave, There were a few faster. Like a blown Alcohol vega and a couple dedicated drag cars.

Not really any street cars faster though. Definitely none that drove to and from.

I'll try to link the video directly.

I now for sure have to do the bar and harness. All the way around I'm pissing them off. My plan is to take a little time off and work on doing some sheeting under the car with aluminum. Also do a bit of modification to the transaxle and cv's. I just want to come out next time running mid tens. It's just too hard to drive so easy off the line and then also too hard to keep traction. I might also try to shed some weight.

Howabout some custom axles using U-joints instead of CVs?
A little old-school but it works pretty well for Jaguars and C3/C4s.

It's 1" round stock. I cut it to 1" , then lathe down about 1/2" length to approx 3/8" , then flip it to face the other end leaving the button to 1/4". I then drill and tap the axle with 3/8 course thread.

You can do the metric conversions. lol

nice.
next up will be some sort of trans case reinforcement to stop pinion deflecting.
