What not to do with your rans brake http://videos.streetfire.net/video/C...PER_162983.htm

Big ouch.

[Loren Smith]

At least he had a good attitude about it.

[Tomsu]

Why did he get back into it so hard?

[427435]

It looks like the second time did the most damage (maybe all of it). He hit it again just as the front started to bounce up from the first landing-----bad idea.

[Hitch]

Yeah that's going to leave a mark... Okay I'm surprised too that the owner was not to worried about it all. Must be nice to have that type of $$$$$$$

Three wheels off the ground

[Hitch]

Now that's TORQUE!!! Show me a ricer that can pull that....

[buns]

IBTL!

That would be difficult with front wheel drive!

[joshtried]

I did that with the camaro, SS/IA car, stood on the trans brake and cut her loose, went so far I thought I was going over

Eased her back a little and shifted in the air, came down about 400 feet down the track. No damage other than my shorts

The fastest way down the track for high powerred 4 link cars is to set them so you only get a 2-4" of wheel stand when you leave the line, and most of the cars run coil spring, not leaf spring, wheelie bars and also anti-roll systems on the 4-link.

When I was getting my pro-stock license at the Roy Hill drag racing school one of the cars broke a weld on the wheelie bars and they pulled it off to reweld it, but kept using the car for burn-out practice.

After a nice burn out Roy (who has one way radio contact with you so he can yell at you all the time, not just when you're out of the car) told the driver to stage the car and practice a launch. The car came up so high we could read the letterring on the hood while standing directly behind it.. the driver did a good job lifting and then applying the gas to cushion the landing. Smashed the oil pan but it was repairable.

The next day none of us could get the car to go down the track straight, so Roy told us none of could drive worth a S**t and jumped in the car and made a pass. He did get it down the track but was zig-zagging in the lane the whole way down. The car was retired for the day while front chassis repair and realignment was done

By the way, did you guys know that although Roy Hill has Ford sponsorship and run's Ford bodied cars at his school all the cars have big block chevy's with Ford emblems on the valve covers?
