So going by these rules if I run 13.99 or quicker I have to have a drive shaft loop? I understand the helmet deal and I always have worn one each trip down.

2000GT_13.87et · March 27th, 2007, 11:43 AM

I retract my previous post I didnt read far enough! I have to run a 11.49 or quicker before I have to have a loop....Im running street tires.

White99stang · September 24th, 2007, 03:35 PM
