Nice burnout...you've done that a time or two haha.

I've heard about those 2 steps. Guy with a twin turbo SRT8 on 10psi ran 11.37 using one of those and rant and raves about it. I'm just paranoid of an electronic gizmo tying in to so many sensors of the car. I saw one act up one time and it was a headache. May have to eventually look in to one though if I wanna get real serious.

One thing your Mustang has going for it is the solid rear axle. As you know these Challengers have IRS. I put DSS Level 5 axles in mine to avoid any axle problems.....now I wonder how the diff will hold up LOL.

My next step is to work on the burnout. You can see obviously by my video that wasn't NEAR enough. I need to find out how to jump over on the brake real quick to hold it still. If I can get 1.7x or even 1.6x 60' I'll be in real good shape.

I just got these M&H DRs. Are the other tires you're talking about a slick or ? If I run the slicks I have to swap the front tires too to avoid some weirdness at speed as I understand it?

Sorry for all the newb questions, but I've only got about 15 passes on the drag strip in my life. Took about 10 passes for me to really start figuring some things out, but I still gotta long way to go.
