If I put radials on the Ripper it would go sub 1.20 60 ft.n/a home brew sbc


If your 1.27 now, I can't see you dropping that much just with a tire change. I've seen cars drop a tenth going to radials, but they were 11 second cars that were running tubed bias plys, and it was a tenth over 1/4 mile.


he won't, he's clueless having never run them.

That said, I have seen that too. slow cars, cars with jello sidewalls, cars with junk slicks, etc but make the swap to radial slicks on a car running the right bias tire, a car that works and you are not running anywhere near a tenth quicker and you will still have to dial in the shocks to optimize the tire. My firebird won't get off the starting line without dialing in the shocks if I just swap back to bias slicks.

FYI, a lighter weight tire will always 60 foot quicker which means it will ET quicker and radial slicks WILL raise your trap RPM by ~ 200

I'm full of BS this morning, coffee kicked in. If everyone picks up a tenth on radials, that should tell you I'd slow down a tenth. I'm clueless adjusting shocks after all!!

FINALLY you admit it now finally admit you hit the cone and you will be set free from this burden you've carried far too long trying to convince everyone on every drag race message board that you were rob of a round win despite the undeniable proof that you did shown at 4:30...

Don't worry about it though Edward, nobody else's engine builder does either.

The only reason I can do it is because I'm clueless.

Why do you always post partial time slips? And it appears you have 1 time slip with a 1.27 60' and 1 time slip showing you going 6.43 @ 112. Show me multiple time slips showing that and maybe I'll believe it wasn't a timing anomaly. I have a time slip of my old 8.90 Camaro going 172....

This is why, one of many such comments from YB were mikey has numerous screen names...

"I see three toe rietow found a bunch of idiots that swallow his line of bull shyt over at DRR.COM he is posting his pictures of the time bomb ultra street shyt bag engine that was supposed to make the world stop turning, I have been thinking about joining up over there and spoiling his fun, I wonder if they know he was responsible for over 10k posts in one thread alone, he was and always be a fucing attention hore that knows nothing and never will, if ignorance and bull shyt was money he could buy out bloomberg."

My haters on YB are bend over billy's such as yourself Edward, clowns who'd take it deep in the arse without a peep if a track official lied them out of a final round, 45 minutes after the other guy loaded up declared loser.

no mikey, they are not and I am not. we all know you're a sick little man who desperately longs for attention on message boards signing in under countless alias in an attempt to be all knowing about everything racing, politics, the economy, the world, that needs medical intervention before you harm yourself due to this great injustice that you have dreamed up or the fact that we see right through your bull shyt...

the video at 4:30 is undeniable and indisputable

Edward your a bend over billy essentially admitting you'd bend over and take it deep in the arse by objecting to me not taking it up the arse, as you would completely ignore evidence you see with your own two eyes, without a peep you'd take it deep.

mikey, you appear to have a penchant for men's arses, is this a result of your time spent incarcerated?

That said, I nor I'm sure no one here cares what you take or put up your arse. Your posts here though have made it clear you have been abusing your body with drugs and alcohol for a very long time so we are not surprise to read you engage in this harmful behavior too.

Get help man!

Edward, you'd bend over and take it deep up your arse on a make believe story 45 minutes later without a PEEP! You can see with your own eyes is make believe, still you'd take it DEEP!!

That makes you a bend over billy without a spine, un-American.

The incrementals should tell you, or the numbers in the right lane on the slip. 4.22 330 ft is a middle 6.50 104 - 105 mph.

Talk with Kirk.


I recommend Bullet cams and Kirk is pretty sharp.

"Dunning-Kruger Effect"
-a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge.

Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue.

Yeah, I like the guy, cool. The owner of the engine was ready to pull the trigger on a Erson roller around 640 and 276, I told the guy hold up lets try this guy Kirk that Richard suggested. I called Kirk the next day and told him everything We had for a pump gas Saturday night hot rod, told him we need something easy on parts, he says this is a easy one and says this cam makes a lot of racket, he says you want it to make a lot of racket right? I chuckled and said yeah. He says this one will work with nitrous too, he says your gonna have nitrous right!? LoL! Cool guy sounds like he enjoys hot rodding.

A little street pump gas roller cam. He says oh yeah you'll like this one!

It's actually a bad ass little sb. It's a Dart Sportsman Block 4.185 bore x 3.75 stroke Callies Magnum, Callies Ultra rods with a old Dart 23 heads ported 58cc probably flow 295 300. Should make 575 - 600hp.
