dang, thought it would be something for me, thanks for the honesty, I have over 400 horses somewhere, they are just hard to see when the wheels are spinning.

Jason, do you have your next of kin on file with MM.Net Administration?

Went right over my head...

EDIT: Ok, twelve minutes later, what I meant was since that image is hosted on my server I could alter the image or replace it. But I won't. I guess I thought it was amusing, one of those quick "Just to say it" lines that shouldn't get this much attention.

I got your humor the first time, apparently you missed mine in return.

Selling them already....?

Those are the ones Zack uses no?

I can attest that they look good and work good as well. ;)

If those are the ones you had in Cleveland, there are pics in the EAM-III gallery.

We fixed that now, and I apologize for imposing on your hospitality.

No, and yes, Bear...Thanks.

No...Zack churns his mid 11 second times on 295/35/18 BFG drag radials on 9.5" MM wheels from Lidio, and he gets a 1.6x, or, better 60' foot time as well. So, it's 295 wide or better drag radial, when you're driving a supercharged Marauder. Yes...I'm sorry to say that the wheels and tires I am selling here, are the 265/35/18 drag radials on 18x9 wheels that I brought to Dragway 42 for our Cleveland meet. Thanks for the point to our EAM-II pics. These tires warm up just fine, and they feel good too, until you hit them with my screwed up blend of RWHP, and net vehicle weight. This has to be factored in, and I did all the wrong math.

Honestly now, between my race weight (typical of heavy cars, 4400+ Lbs), and my tune (478 RWHP/434 RWTQ), these tires can not get me any faster than a 2.0 60' time. I'm burning up at the tree, because my MM is too heavy, and has too much power for these drag radials to get (or hold) any bite. It's simple math, and my math failed me.

When I bought them, I had hopes of performance because they came into my hands cheap. Cheap or not, they cannot deliver the performance I need at the start line, so, I didn't "beat the money Devil" after all. They are perfect for any other use under 400 RWHP, or, under 4000 pounds net race weight. Any N/A Marauder, or, Mustang, should improve 1320 times on these drag radials. The 4.5" bolt pattern and 35mm offset will fit the last 10 years of Mustang production, if ya know someone in need, give 'em a heads up?

Thanks!
