Well, with those bigger rear wheels your car isn't optimized for =
turns, either. And, I *know* you're not shying away from that! Well =
regardless, what's wrong with your 1st gear? What spec transmission are =
you running? FYI, I'm expecting to launch in 2nd gear, myself. With =
those tree stump-pulling 4.25 ring & pinion gears my car should also be =
at a definite disadvantage at the strip.
=20
Just get out there to see what you can do regardlss of how =
competitive you are! There's always going to be somebody out there who =
can hand you your arse, right? I just ran my first drag race on Friday =
night (16.091 in the Subaru) and got spanked each and every time. Well, =
that's my perspective, anyway. Ish all good...
=20
P.S. Through my rally connections in Ireland I can bring in =
genuine VW Motorsports 16v gear sets. Maybe you need a taller 1st and =
2nd? Just say the word and I can arrange it for ya. (That offer is =
extended to anybody else, too.)
