HeHe, now dat's funny and impressive.
I didn't need whellie bars until i switched to Alcohol on my little motor @ 3250lbs. best 60ft before 1.44, after 1.39.
Funny thing happened to me one nite when i had 6.20 gears in the car, i raised the wheelie bars up to the top notch, came out at 5500, the car went straight up and right and i heard this scrubbing noise. I thought i got in touch with the wall. Got back to the pits and no scraches on the paint Whew!! What the hell was that noise. When i started tying the car down in the trailer, i see two 1 1/4 inche grooves cut into the fiberglass bumper about 1/8" deep. I don't do that any more :lol:

Bottom line Alcohol will wake them up no matter what size motor.

It sounds like you had fun and i'm sure you are looking forward to next spring BJ as i am.

Sorry guys didn't mean to high jack the thread ops:
