      Thanks Tony. Btw, I'm stealing these and putting them on my youtube page to lol.

      Some solid video here, The last video especially gives me a nice view of the launch and what the cars doing. I'll be analysing these for the next little bit. Definetly appreicated.

        Why haven't you bothered with front drag rims and tires and light rims for the rear?

          I have weld prostars for the rear, but when I bolted them up I noticed one tire had a crack in the sidewall and I didn't want to risk running it at the track. Because of the time crunch I had to borrow my buddies drag radials off his vette. I weighed my prostars vs his radials on vette rims and the difference was 38lbs vs just over 55lbs per rim/tire.

          I think that 34lbs of extra weight hurt big time.

          Hoping to grab lightweight fronts some day...Didn't do much to the car money wise this year, really just getting the trans in order and the QA1 setup.

            Basically My car on motor goes from running 14.9's to 14.4's just from taking off the 17" C-6 wheels and bolting on my 15" Street Lite wheels.

                I trimmed the videos down to just to make it easier to analyze what's happening at each run....I definetly owe you a few beers, these give me a great idea of what's going on.

                Brian, I figured the tires could be worth that much. How heavy is your 15" setup?
