17th Annual DSM/EVO Shootout **MEGA MERGE THREAD**
Can't wait for next year. This is my second time attending and I had a great time once again. I'm kinda sorry I missed most of the action but at least I got to see the semi and final rounds.
Many thanks to Buschur Racing for having such a great event!

Very nice photos, I agree, thank you very much for posting them.
Kevin Lawson drove my Bad Bish. Trent Stanley drove Project White.
Kevin got knocked out first round of Q16 but ran 9.17, 9.13 and 9.13 in a row at the of the day.
Trent won EVO Stock Appearing, ran a best of 10.70, no power shifting on the MT drag radials.
Chris Young won the Stock Appearing Dyno trophy with 494 whp/507 ft lbs.
The rear end squat on the AWD's. I've tried both ways, keeping the front end planted and trying to keep only the rear end planted. What's the best way? It may come down to driving style and preference honestly. Right now I am playing with the Bad Bish to reach a happy medium to be honest. From the pictures posted it appears as though my car has the best control of the rear camber, which I am really glad to see, one thing for sure you want to keep the rear tires as close to 0 camber as you can when the car leaves the line, same goes for the front, otherwise you lose your contact patch. The Bad Bish ran 1.44, 1.43 and 1.44 sixty foot times on the last three 9.1 passes it made Sunday.

AWD is a dedicated team !
The poor hotel is on the verege of bankruptcy as no single room has ever consumed as much of the free breakfast as AWD did. They told me they had to milk the cows over time to satiate Mike's thrst for fresh milk. LOL.

Well guys the racing for us didnt turn out as planned... We ran qualifying on a bog and went 9.6@161mph.. then next pass we broke the hollow shaft in the trans.. We went back to Buschurs Shop and fixed it in time to make a couple runs late in the day.. 1st pass when we came back spun hard so we had to get out of it.. 2nd pass we blew the motor..
If so Ricardo make a stronger one if your interested. I snapped mine once and run the uprated one now. I think Shep is gonna make some eventually.

Do you mean the inner hollow shaft coming out of the center diff?
