besides i dont think a roll cage will make a second diffrence in the 1/8 and then less of a second in the 1/4. i mean im not an expert or anything jusr been draggin for over 6 years, and never seen anything even REMOTLY like that. i call bs yet agin.

first off i really dont see a point in drag racing a 4 cylinder, i have a drag datsun 280z for that. i have the roll cage for autocross. and ever heard of power to weight ratio? why dont you add 200 pounds in metal in your car and see if your car slows down. so i guess your 6 years of experience isnt enough. so the next time you want to say, bs. dont.

so you lost.9 almost a second in the 1/8 th but only lost .2 in the 1/4. doesnt add up. neither does the 8.9 in the 1/8 and 15 flant in the 1/4. mathmatically improbable, the times dont add up bro. anyone else agree with me?

I call complete utter BS. I go to the track quite often (or at least used to) and I think I know how certain cars perform. No disrespect to you, but I have been around tuning and forums for quite some time. I have a RA and I have run it bone stock. Those times do not add up at all.

What class do you run in autox btw?
