damn i juss ran down into my basement with a scale lol my 225 fronts and 245 rears on stock 18s weigh 47 each fronts are 45 each

 

i think a ferry could do a quater mile quicker thats only cause i love you

 

youre spinning with all that in the back? what's going to happen when you take it all out?

 

I don't know anyone who's snapped an axle. I run 295/35-18 bfg's and launch @ 6k rpm with an open diff. I put down 362/371 on the dyno. I suspect proper launch techniques negate breakage.

 

^ I would wager the majority of FI folks on Drag oriented tires has broken at least one axle. Like I said above....last fall I almost got taken out by a piece of shrapnel from a bone stock g on stock bridgestones that grenaded a stock axle. Launch technique does have a lot to do with it though.

 

ugly im spinning on shitty tires and thanks izit thats all i needed to hear to make me want radials

 

viigy you gonna share with me? pretty please?

 

I snapped my right axle at a drift event. I've heard that upgrading the differential bushings can help reduce the chance of an axle breaking.

 

describe a N/A engine on street tires good launch?

 

What?

 

lol... describe a non aspirated aka no boost no nitrous engine launch with street tires on a 1/4 mile track.... should i have clutch fully down and drop it or what? idk tell me how to launch a Z the right way?

 

I launched on ET Streets with 550 hp numerous times and never broke an axle. It wasn't until I had my latest setup
(630ish whp) that I broke a stock axle

That being said, it has alot to do with the Bias Ply tire absorbing alot of the shock and the lack of wheel hop
