| I'm trying to build the car right from the word go, instead of slapping random parts on and going. My ultimate goal is to run Mid Tens. I am going to buy a set of skinny front runners for the Rock and try and set the car up to rise the nose better. |

Talk to Heater about your ET goals. Sounds like a similar setup. Get some good biasplyes, do a good burnout, and drive the eff outa that thing and you won't be too far from your goal as is. If you want better weight transfer get the skinneys and remove the sway bar. BUT I've never seen a New Edge squat like a 3v on launch. A few of us had this conversation at Mustang Week.

I launched the piss outta mine. Squatted like hell, then blew the clutch to pieces. Oh cruel irony, how your barbs are razor sharp lol. Welcome on man, looking forward to actually talking to you Friday instead of just a what's up.

| I can't launch mine too hard, as I am still running the stock input shaft, (as far as I know)stock clutch, and no diff brace.... I will be putting on a diff brace before the Rock, but 3000 rpm dumps are no where in my near future... LOL. |

U can launch it at 3500 but no more than 4000 with no issues.

Went 10.84 with the stock input shaft.
It's too much clutch (Spec) that kills the input shaft. |
