  • Quick launch question

    I've got a 97 3.8 camaro. Stil stock open 3.23 end. Would it be bad for me to toss some drag radials on it with the open diff? How much more traction would I see compared to street radials on the track?

    DR's will help with traction, but I would save the money on the DR's and get LSD first. Just my .02

        Well, I have a friend who has a couple of sets for his car (7second wagon :D ), and was going to see if he'd let me borrow one set.

          If you're borrowing, then by all means go for it.
