ok i know on the last gotta see video i posted i said no way the guy was running a manual tranny and he was. i didnt think about power shifting. on this one im betting no subframe connectors. what do you guys think?

i'm thinking he has em...it looks as if his body stayed straight even though the car did go straight. Saw a race on Pinks where the fox didn't have connectors..the body twisted like a pretzel.

yeah..you may be right...but couln't that amount of twisitng be caused by too soft a suspension setup..ie springs too cushy.....

theres one on streetfire that a guy pulls the wheels up then the car drops about half way while he shifts and he punches it again and pulles them back up... now thats a ballsy car to beable to lift all the weight with that downward momentum

it could,but the frame wouldnt give like that, it would just collapse to the rear. mine were too soft and it would colapse on the rear so hard the fender would cut into my tires but it never fatigued the frame. it did before i put on my subframe connectors though. so bad that the left side was 7/8 of an inch shorter than the right from being shoved forward. had to straighten frame and put in a stang box. it sucked!!!!

yeah..now that i look at it..he looks as if he is bent..definately favouring that right side...soon he will have to race in the right lane only so he drives into the wall rather than the other racer..ha
