that is the dumbest thing i have ever seen


i want my 2 minutes back
 
whats the point of that......besides probably making a ton of noise and destroying public property


in that one picture of them hanging out the roof, is it just me or does it look like one girl is sucking the other girl's...breasts?

It's better then the car going to the junkyard and all people have different taste.If you think back to the 50's when merc's and lincolns were made into led sleds then all you have to do is adapt to the new times and think people are still keeping this hobby alive,I give this guy a A for effort

Nothing wrong with jugs, but the pavement is our tax dollars
 
If you like I can post pics of the pavement afterwards. nothing is damaged, so what, If I chose to grind down some trailer balls.

Would a more suitable video for your 2 minutes be a crackhead getting a fix?

I know Im certainly not the only person who would perfer to put their mark on fastbags.

I have done a very difficult conversion, the front was a pain in the ass to say the least but its done.

To those who do care.
Im using Slam Specialties RE-6's all the way around,
ODE 1/2 Electric valves.
2 6 gallon tanks
and An Oasis

oh and the thing hanging out of the roof is a blowup doll. The pics were taken at Turkey Drag 07

To Mr VR4, I have a go fast car too. I dont really see the point in going in a straight line ;) Its my hobby and figured Id share.

I knew that was a blow up doll and i know those do not do much damage to the pavement,enjoy your hard work and your ride and always check for a gas leak:)
 
straight line isnt my style either. just cause i list 1/4 mile times doesnt mean thats all i do. listing auto-x times is pretty much pointless.
 
yea no doubt, I actually had a fuel cell made in the stock location for it.

Its been built to do that kinda stuff correctly. I know the fuellines run right under the pass side beside the pinch they have been moved as well.

I can agree with Auto-x being pointless.
 
Haha, so I was kind of right even if they are fake boobs on a blow up doll. Plenty of real women have fake boobs too!

I'm not being a smart ass but I would actually like to see the pavement.
And do you just put a trailer ball on each side of the car because from what I see there are sparks coming out of the sides, not the center where a trailer ball usually goes?

yes I have put the hitches on the rear most body mounts, Id rather drag the trailer balls off, then the stock body mounts.

next drag session I will be more then happy to post up the marks that are left. its no different then somone doing a burn out.
 
Are you going to get the flames out of the exhaust too,I have seen those kits in street rodder
 
nah I just love it on the ground, it measured 44" tall
BTW, did you know M8 is considered a hot rod.
 
My fun was the other night doing a burnout pulling out in 2nd and havin sparks fly out due to no rubber. As far as the pavement humping eh back in the day was sweet but nowa days not really. But thats your thing I do dumb :q:q:q:q that entertains me and no one else so i do understand
 
haha I can certainly agree with the dumb $%^$, I mean come on my passenger was holding a blowup doll out the moon roof on the cruise night after the show. :lol: between the dragging and the drunk naked chics it was a blast.
 
I built a long cup and I made an U sidedown bracket with a bag plate on to so it hugs the stock LCA. and then made an arm that connects to the smae bolt as the LCA to the LCA.

Its been a thorn in my side but its finally done. next up is install the new grille and replace the pass side corner lamp. bodywork and paint
 
so no struts at all in the front?

Correct, I built a Tall Cup on top and a bracket in the Shape of a upside down U to go over and around the LCA in the mounting point of the stock strut. added a standard 6" diameter air spring and a separate shock. it rides way better then stock. (I know that because I aqquired the car with new bags all around)

If anyone is interested in doing a fast bag conversion PM me, I learned a few tricks that makes it go smoother.
 
That reminds me of when the car clubs around cruise around town, then they do a 3 wheel stand and turn and the sparks just go everywhere.
 
I would never do it to my car, but everyone has their interests.

I would like to see what the balls look like after that? How do you have them attached to the car? Any pics, how long do they last?
 
I have re-enforced the rear body mounts that hold the diff/suspension craddle
and I screw in 2 7/8" trailer balls, that particular night a set of two lasted about 20 miles, there is barley any weight on them when they contact the pavement thats how you keep from tearing up the road and throwing debris to cars behind you.
