csamsh, what kind of 60ft times were you getting when you bent the BMR ones? Also I assume they were not welded.
What's a 60 foot time??? lol

But seriously- no they weren't welded. A good 60 for me was 1.90-1.95 with 275 street tires @35psi. My car was never a "serious" drag car, and it doesn't go to the drag strip at all any more.

Hmmm that's not very reassuring, I thought I had read that you where ok not welding unless you were sub 1.7.

I am being pretty conservative right now and running mine in the top setting.

I wouldn't say that my lack of success had anything to do with straight lines. I would lean more towards autox/track time.
