Is everyone running aftermarket axles that post low 60' times?
First off I will say that aftermarket axles are a smart investment. BUT
If you are running 1.70-1.80 60ft you will not always need aftermarket axles. Those 60ft times would put you in the 12.00 -12.50 1/4 times. I run 1.72-1.75 60ft 12.40's been running that for about 5 years on slicks. Don't know what spline your axles are but mine are 26 spline, so they are small. Weight of the car,torq,4-speeds and N2O are small axle/rearend killers. Preload the convertor on the line before launch. That will take some of the shock off of the rear/axles. I know guys running lower 60ft but have bigger spline axles(28-31).
Again; Aftermarket axles are a smart investment. I thought I would say it again before all the other members jump on me for saying you don't absolutely need aftermarket axles.
