Slicks on the Cobra???

Dark_5.0 · 07-17-2002, 08:34 AM

Next payday I will be tacking the cobra to the track. I have some slicks mounted on weld drag lites.

Would the car bog and die off the line or would they help.

Rev it high and slip the clutch off the line! Just don't break your halfshafts with that nasty IRS wheelhop

.
Also, check the brake clearance with the Welds on the back - not sure what size yours are, but I think MM&FF said 15's wouldn't clear.
