Everything Was Wrong With the Car Prep

Watching DDG almost get air with his 340 Demon reminded me of this launch in Bowling Green back in 2007 at the Chrysler Classic.

65lbs of air in the front tires.
55 in the rear.
I forget how much air in the shocks
Uncorked the headers
Tach wasn't working.
3:23's open diff
198 slant, stock cam, Hookers, M-1 with a BBD, extensively ported drool plug .090 off the head. Valve lash set to the cold gap set hot.

Almost got some air.

What was the deal with the leaf springs winding up didn't look right to me Mopars launch better than that. I'm not being a dick I truly don't know just looking to learn racing isn't my area of expertise. I truly believe DDG could have granny shifted that Demon on street tires and beat Uncle Tony's car...

Exhaust pipe perhaps.

Watch the video it isn't the pipes its the leafs wrapping up at first I figured he removed the snubber so he'd have problems and Tony would win...kind of like Andy wood had problems and Tony won etc. It explains why DDG posted a video after the race of installing a snubber but it doesn't mean he didn't remove it off camera in the pits. How long does it take to yank a snubber 10 minutes? The one thing you can count on with UTG is there is funny business and Monkey business...
