I'm considering running streets, only problem is I would break loose 1st, and
2nd gears at the track if it's anything like the street, so I might just run ET streets and take it easy on the launch.

Not yet, I am considering taking out a loan for the full amount and just holding onto it until spring when it will definitely sell. Plus in May people will get those tax rebates and tax returns, plus warm weather, probably have better luck selling it then. I've got a couple leads now, but one thing or another just keeps them from working out.

Matt-Id rather run on a sticky tire, baby the launch and catch traction the rest of the way. You can conservatively launch your way to 1.7 60ft's all day long, thats what I did in my TN set-up because at the time I was scared of breaking axles....

hmm, parts provider eh. I might have to get in contact with you seeing as how I probably broke every possible suspension component I have on the front and rear drivers side of my car.
