On the street?

Maybe some of those more involved with semi organized street racing can give their experience but I think pulling wheels on the street is damn near impossible regardless of suspension, tires, and power. The traction on the street sucks.

this is true. I have seen a few spots where the street is prepped well, but that is still a long shot.

But if you're doing it with sandbags and a stock engine, then getting beat by new camry after you leave the line would be pretty embarrassing, no?

Build a motor that will pull the wheels up without using sandbags and then go do it at the race track!
NO need to be playing childish games on the street and risking your life as well as innocent ones as well!

On second thought....go rice out a Honda Civic so you wont have that much power to hurt anyone and leave the REAL power to adults!

y does every one have to get fucking hostile when someone just mentions something? you should really not make an ass of your self by making hostile remarks to a person before you say some shit like that or you could at least say it in a different way as to not affend some one. for your fukin information i havent got any type of ticket in the last 2 years and i have owned a 91 camaro ss with a bit of computer tuning and this mustang so before you get at me about being unsafe you should really not make your self look like a jackass and assume that every stop light i come to im going to drop the clutch and do my best to lift the front end or leave tracks...

The question still remains....why would you even THINK about doing something that retarded on the streets?
You're the one making yourself look like a fuckin asshole by wanting to do stupid shit like that!
You have shown your own immaturity by posting this thead and the replies you have made. How old are you....16? 17? GROW THE FUCK UP!

Take a look in the mirror. If you dont agree with what he wants to do, then feel free to post your honest, polite opinion. Bashing the guy, and calling him names makes you less mature than an 11 year old boy discovering his ball hair for the first time.
