Actually i was going to suggest that if you can get the tires to hold,if they dont it will go into smoke really fast lol...You have enuff clutch,not sure if the rest will like it lol

[dekan513]

just a suggestion but, like do a easy launch and roll into it with the 3.90 gear and the power u got might make for a good run.

i know when i raced dirt bikes, when the 4 strokes came out i was doing it like a 2 stroke and starting in 1 or 2 gear. until i talked to a guy one day and he suggested 3 and 4 i was like nah. but it ended up workin. i know its a big difference but same concept.

Now that is a statement I never thought I would hear form a guy that sells clutches make. Launch a 800 RWHP 760 Torque 4100 pound car in second gear. You Sir have a LOT of faith in my clutch. All I can think of is what would happen it the tires did not break loose now that scares all my other parts LOL

I see your point, but I just don't think I could ever do that with my car. To me it is like flooring it in reverse I am sure it can be done but I just can't do it. LOL

[dekan513]

i understand that too jim, if u dont feel its right its hard to make it work. more seat time tho . the mph is crazy tho.

Considering you are brains and the builder of my car not to mention you can drive the heck out of a stick car and weigh about 80 pounds less than me too. You may be my guaranteed 9 second pass LOL but NO you can't launch my baby in second........

dekan when you go past 50 years old the definition of torque kinda changes.
