[KYGTP]

Well, we took the car out for the last day of T & T and were able to get 10 passes in on the car without it coming apart:rolleyes: We got alot of work this winter to get the power to the wheel, but here are a couple videos we got of the car:

Here is in car views with the GoPro. Too bad the battery died toward the end of the day.

Nice runs, never realized a fwd car would be so hard to handle,lol.

Here is video of my run in my FWD car. It seemed pretty tame compared to yours.

Very Nice Joe!!!

Well, with our car, the stock diff sucks, and we took out the powering stearing, which is going back in. Now put 400+ (I hope) to the wheels and the car wants to walk every which way but the way you want it too:rolleyes:

Next spring, we hope to have everything worked out, and it should handle better.

We are going to get the car on the dyno as soon as we have time to see where we are at our current setup with 15# of boost. Once we do that we are going to get a cage put in, then pull everything out to get the trans rebuilt.

KYGTP: your stock diff can have clutch plates added to somewhat help with the traction, but it will not be like a true LSD. your best bet is a Quaife QDF18B

Also spherical metal pivot bushings instead rubber/poly will help keep the suspension from deflecting under power.

Another thing to try is getting the front tires out of the burnout box before starting the burnout. This only work if they don't lay out a huge puddle of water.

Also try strapping the front suspension and playing with the rear spring rate/damping.

Wrong wheel drive isn't as easy....
