running without wheelie bars is stupid
(look back at the video of Chris Johnson rolling a car something like 8 times down the retaining wall after losing it in a 'no wheelie bar' class)

This guy was doing it because he could. Chris knew he should have let-off but he didn't.

Chris could do it too... all it takes is one time for something to go wrong and you wreck a car and nearly kill yourself.

I doubt this guy had any idea where he was on the track. And even if he did, he can't predict what way, or if, that car's gonna turn suddenly.

(not to mention a wheelie bar saves on the broken parts bill AND rules out chewing up the racetrack/pissing fluid everywhere on landing)

The driver amplifies his horseshit driving with his impressive redlight.

It's called a progressive controller, learn to use it.

p.s. To the video creator, utilize "slow motion" in a way that doesn't put your audience to sleep.

Yer right about that Andy, no one around here has the sack to do shit like that.

silly cagers

I know I've never seen Ethan cut a red light.

While the wheelie/launch looked like a pretty exciting ride, it sure didn't seem very smart. Perhaps a little test-n-tune may of helped get the chassis sorted out. That said, I can see this happening to Faul the first time he tries to launch the Probe hard. LOL

:eek:

Me neither, and everytime I don't do it, I go straight down the track.

Easy to say for a the guy who waits 5 second AFTER the light goes green to leave.

That was two years ago... this last year I was playing the bracket games and actually set the car up to try to cut a light. Don't make me post the video....

Do I smell a "reaction time" challenge this year?

I suppose, since you won't be able to compete on ET this year.

Let me know what its potential is then I'll tell ya..

Oh, I thought you hadn't made a clean pass in it yet. My mistake.

I was wasn't been defensive Ethan. No need to apologize. I know there is more in it. I think I need to replace driver to see what it can do. I by no means say I am an expert out there. I go out just to have fun like most of us. When you get too serious it takes all the fun out of it. You should understand that part when you are out there on a regular race day and watch everyone else. They are in a totally different mindset....they know who they are too......

Maybe I'll bust a 9.xx this year?????????
Think I can drop over a full second this year :rolleyes:
