    New to drag racing. Need advice.

    I really appreciate your advice. So....tuning before traction. Damn these Wisconsin winters!!! I've never been a fan of "throwing money at a problem", and I thank you for your honesty. After looking at the launch video closer, it's not like I'm burning rubber and turning out of my...

    Unfortunately, I don't have history on the build. I basically found the car in a barn. I bought it from a guy that was planning to take it back to a street machine. In my opinion....it's past that point. Stripped interior....cut, etc, etc. I could not agree more, I think the spring...

    That Sir, sounds like great advice! I'm just chomping at the "bit" to make improvements with no way of testing/tuning in Wisconsin Winter. Ugh!!

    I am somewhat familiar with a 4 link. What's a track link? Anybody got suggestions on a kit I can buy to put in? Again, I'm not looking to break any records....yada, yada. I just want to take this barn find and make it run the best I can.

    Thanks for the input. In this local 300 foot series, they don't allow "box burn outs". Pull up to the line and run....period. I put brand new rubber on the car. Don't quote me, but the are MT's that are designed...per the ad to have maximum traction with little or no warm up. Basically this...

    Thanks for the input. Driver error? There is a line lock on the car.....I've never tried it. Something to try to eliminate "push through"??? Sorry.....total greenhorn on this end. I'm here is Wisconsin where there is salt/snow and ice......obviously tracks are closed for testing...

    New to drag racing. Need advice.

    I'm looking for any and all advice on where to go from here to get better traction. I'm told a 4-link is the way to go. This was an original 340 swinger, but it's been cut. Mini tub, fender walls cut, hodge podge mods to the uni-body for the front spring mounts. I'm looking for honest...

    My challenge is this: I think my rear suspension is "crap". Here is a close up of trying to get out of the hole in front of my house.

    I bought a 69 dart late this summer. It wasn't running at the time. Anyway, it's an older drag racing build. I'm trying to squeeze the most out of it that I can. Honestly....I don't know where to start. I got the car running just in time to make the last local 300 foot drag. Check out...

    Correction: The photos of the front tires show, the spares from my car hauler. Luckily they were a 4.5 bolt pattern as well. The tires on the car when I found it were so bad I couldn't air them up. A quick change was in order, just to load and get it home!

    Hello out there. I'm looking for suggestions. I just picked this 69 swinger up last week. I've got 20 hours into freeing up the rusted rings, priming the engine, cleaning out mouse crap, etc, etc, etc. The car was a barn find and had not run in years.....but I got it back to life and...
