Default Re: ET with and without wheelie.

In my sb stocker
It?s gotta wheelie or it slows down
I tighten up the shocks. Years ago it slows down like 5 hundreds
Now in aBB high powered 396 I hear tighten it up it goes faster
Watch Jim Boudreau car tight is right

Ya know Ponko, Even cars like my Novas which wouldn't wheelstand on their best day will slow down if I have the front shocks too tight. Each car and combo wants what it wants and they're all different.

Billy that's a great point all cars are different ,Another example of my personal car is I had my shocks way too tight my first couple of runs with my car last week and my 60's were 1.39 both passes . So there is something to your statement for sure. Every car just has to find its own sweet spot for the best ET.
