Very true I'd give those rims part of the blame, as well as the sticky track.

How am I suppose to launch then? I thought the stickier the tires the better?

sticky tires yes, big wheels, not so much. A big wheel is alot more mass to get rolling then a smaller wheel/tire combo.

I just wouldn't recommend launching hard on 19's without much stronger axles.
Bill: Here are some pictures of my car at the strip. I had 16" focus wheels with the OEM svt rubber which is the G-Force KDW T/A's blah blah's
My favorite picture, my car may not be in it, but according to the tree, that's a good thing

the only way to get any sort of a good time out of these cars is by dropping the clutch, with amazing tires, above 4 thousand rpms, i dont see why this is so proposterous to you folks, that must be why we have 16 second and high 15 second times out of svts!
bill, im glad you got the one axle out, now u should be nearly good to go.

14.9 is my best so far. i am awaiting a nautilus kit as my next mod. but no more thread whoring. this is for bill and his poor axle luck.
