    Ah ok, lol. 1/8th mile would be close I think if you don't spin. On the street you get drug in any race. Hypothetically, of course.

    Getting a few suspension goodies. 70/30s, launch springs, control arms, tubular k member and a arms are in the works.. Already have sub frames now I just need to weld the torque boxes and put a set of soft rubbers on it and see how it goes out of the hole..

    And technically it's still stock.

    Hoping for a decent drop in 60ft.

    4.56's is more than I would personally go on a daily driver. My Cobra has 4.10's, but also has a six speed and it's not bad at all plus it's only a play toy and not a daily. For a daily, I personally wouldn't go more than 3.73's, especially if you drive in heavy traffic at all.

    For a short while they will be fun in first and second gear to play with, but since you lack any real HP, on the big end the car will fall on it's face. You will most likely lose more races now than you did before because now it will be just spinning down low and falling on it's face on the top. I suspect you will change them out in time on your own.

    Excellent choice.

    You know I love my 4.56s, plus the big stall. Fun grocery getter and even a daily driver, if I don't want to drive the Jeep. Don't fear the gear. It's all good.

    You'll love 'em. Forget 1st gear, but 2nd through the mid range is a good ride.

    PM greenbullitt when you are ready for the install. You'll be happy with the results.

    Idk how I can try "too hard"

    Just trying to go fast on a budget.. And I'm stuck at the "it's quick but slow" stage.

    I guess I should stop thinking and trying and it will eventually be fast, all I have to do is sleep on it. Right?

    Looking better over going faster? Really?

    That car doesn't need more then a 275 out back at most.

    315s for the street tire, and get a 255 or 275 for the track.

    Because going to a tire that is too big will slow you down vs what it would run with a smaller tire.

    For example, I will be going with a 255 mt drag radial come summer time, instead of a 275. Simply because I don't need the extra tire. Wasted weight/drag. Very minimal, but my turd is built around minimal gains. So it works out...

    If that doesn't make sense, then I'm sorry. Makes sense to me.
