lol yeah guys, I chirped Reverse the other day.

I've chirped 3rd once, and that was on a road that was choppy. Sweet.

Mine barks 2nd and 3rd pretty good apperantly. Exhaust dumps in front of the axle and it's carbed so I hear a lot of exhaust sound and induction roar, nothing of the tires. When I shift it hard, it feels like a brutal kick in the back end for a split second. I never hear the tires but people tell me you can hear them barking or squeeling(when it spins) pretty loudly.

No chirp here. Just straight breaking em loose pretty much all first 3 gears. Then again I don't lift my right foot when I'm really getting on it.

I'd like to see how my car does on street tires. These drag radials heat up after spinning in 3rd for awhile so I wouldn't know what would happen if I banged 4th gear, but I'm pretty sure I might still be spinning.

I can't use full throttle in second gear so I don't even know if I can chirp third. I kinda miss the days of chirping gears, now the tires just spin and there's no noise.

I did chirp second at the track during the burnout! It sounded wicked when the drag radials hooked up. I don't think the track officials liked it much because I blew right past the starting line.
