read my post im confused too lol

maybe its easier to drive with less power. it is only a 1/4mile after all.

shorter ratios less power and no wheelspin after first gear you could find the car not exactly distroying your previous times now you have some proper power.

i just dont know.

thanks man. me and my very experienced an knowledgeable friend built it with the advice of a well known mitsubishi tuner in wexford..
the rolling road im using is wexford based aswell.
id like to do well in this car for the simple fact that me and my friend built it ourselves and didnt pay no extortionate prices to a big time tuner for work that probly wouldnt have the same time and effort put into it as what we have...

Fair play dude sounds like an animal you've built. Word on the street is your a good pilot too so should be a good combination. This will be a good day out some serious machinery been put together this year.

my car's a tramp she'll let me get to know her real well on the first night lol.
im hoping to have my car set up in a way that all i have to to is pick an rpm and dump the clutch ive a rather large set of slicks on her that should be fairly forgiving..

Sunday will be a nice wee test run to iorn out any issues, April will be the first month of proper power.
