I now have to pressure wash all the rubber stuck to my car and exhaust. Some off it in the wheel well will be there for life.

Would a burnout like that hurt the axles or tranny even with the drag radials?
I don't even know how to do a burnout properly. Last time I tried I thought tranny was about to break and still did not get any wheelspin. Only a sudden jolt and a bump on the head.

Nice sig, hooleyboy.
I’ll send you the original(s) to tweak since my photography skills are obviously abysmal.
Yes, but driveline hardware is typically far more likely to give up the ghost when launching off the line.
Like during this 11-second pass..

Splinter, I was great meeting you. I wanted so bad to just watch and hangout. When you meet Splinter you will have a full understanding why he is so well respected.
Thats a great pic. Your reaction time with that camera is much better than my right foot. You should come out to the AZ meet. You can take my car for a beat run down the strip.

Nah, didn’t intend for it to come across like that. It’s just my Instamatic is woefully inadequate.
Enjoyed catching up with you and the Dyno-Comp guys.
Quite pleased to have witnessed the world’s quickest and fastest C55 in action. Outstanding performance!
Sure you noticed my 13-second grocery machine was parked quietly toward the edge of the pits throughout the event.
May have to again invite myself to visit when you, cruzinquick and chiromikey next have a go down your way.
