20" DR's are the way to go.

Slicks this, DRs that.

Bottom line is Jeff can't beat Will's Viper(stop, roll, track, street), spray or not, slicks or not.

There, continue the pointless benchracing.

No stress release in the tires put too much stress on the driveline. You'd need much stronger, and likely heavier spline axles to handle the torsional stress increase, not to mention stronger gearing, obviously a stronger DS as well as better connections between everything. having a much stronger clutch wouldn't hurt either.

Will even said pretty much what I did. Is he wrong too? Or since he has more experience than I do his version is correct, and I'm still wrong?

There is zero reason why his car won't out run mine.

There are plenty, but I'm on a Mustang site and not going to get banned. We both know why.

If he dropped the car at Vic's house, it lost about 500 lbs AND Vic drove it on all it has, You might lose.

His car, at the current weight with the nitrous armed will out run my car.

Will HE do it? Who knows, but I'm willing to get beat. Hell, I run anyone honestly.

BIG difference in auto vs manual with a radial boss.

I went a 1.6x on 18" radials with a manual last weekend, I fully expect to learn the clutch/tire combo and go a low 1.5x once ironed out. It can be done on radials with a stick, its just MUCH easier and safer for driveline parts with a slick. The wrinkle wall helps absorb a bunch of shock, it hits there instead of the driveline parts.

with that being said, if you can work a clutch well. You should be fine.

I agree, as seen my statement in Jeff's sig. A manual car shocks the tires much harder than auto car does and it does so a few times going down the track with each shift. But going fast can be done on a DR no differently than a slick can. It just takes a more dialed in suspension, a driver who knows how to put some heat into them and slip the clutch properly on the launch.

I agree again on the second part as well. The second part in bold is why it's done that way most times, cuz it's EASIER, rather than learning to drive the car, set the car up right using a big, softer compound slick with much more contact patch.

It's just clear by a lot of posts who has actual racing expierence going fast than 11's and who doesn't.

Would love to see it go down

Seriously, calm down. You're too busy trying to argue being defensive rather than having a conversation. Go take a break and come back.
