An Auto would be the way to go! Ireland is the wrong country for a Drag car, all we got are bumpy airfields to run on, slicks your lucky to get a 1.9 60ft. Best time with a 2sec 60ft is 11.9@130mph The regular tyres pictured above though are coping well 2.4 60ft but still netting 12.2sec runs which is good I thought. When you say get it to hold together what do u mean? Reliability?
