If the front wheels aren't off the ground, it wasn't a hard launch

Maybe for the 6 speeds but I know the MTI Racing 427 drag cars will put both in the air. The autos have it good when it comes to drag racing.

Is that a Ron Fellows? Or did you have it painted? I also noticed you have the full length rear spoiler
