          Since a 8.50 chassis car has little chance in unlimited, I plan to change to slicks at the tracks and leave the trans brake off till the last day.

            Never know. The heavier hitters may take themselves out beating each other up.

            After Larry and Jeff the average was above 8.5 and 4th was a 9.8.

            Likewise with my uncaged car in BB street race. 4th place was the first one over the 11.5 mark.

                  We change coil overs so we have a heavier spring in the rear for street driving. We also change tires.
