      @DDAA most of the stick shift classes require stock type suspension. It's not Leroy anymore either that that point.
      Big tire doesn't fix everything either. Unless you been on a big tire. People don't understand how sketchy they get when you get off the throttle also. Car moves around much more. Even on a small slick you feel it over a drag radial because of the sidewall. It's much worse with a big slick. Not sure if he has or what type of anti roll bar he runs. A good bar with the right adjustments could help some possibly.
      When it comes down to it. Going this fast and faster and being on the edge like this is what makes small tire racing so much fun.
      He should try a set of good drag radials. May help believe it or not.

      There's a difference between a drag radial and slick also when you get off the throttle. The slick moves around a lot more because of the side wall.
      I've always loved small tire racing. Never ran anything bigger then 10.5 tire and been 1.09 to the 60ft. The balance between blowing the tires and sticking the tire is razor thin to make a quick efficient pass. At any moment it can go up in smoke and I mean that literally to lol..

      The only time it broke up on that 8.08 pass was the top of 3rd. Then he slammed it to 4 and squashed the pedal home...with 1500 Bald Eagles and not much down force, spin in 4th at the end of a sketchy track when your pushing it is a fine line.

You’ve got an excellent head on your shoulders Garrett. Keep up the good work.
    P.S. We love you without the jet car. With all of the success you have been able to achieve without the extreme danger that comes with jet cars. IMO, I say sell it and tell the people you’re sorry it just wasn’t worth the risk. You’re an amazing young man with a super bright future.

    • @Nitedontdie
      @Nitedontdie 5 років тому +4

      @hunter childers Nitrous doesn't suck, his setup does. He doesn't have the budget CM does, so he's basically just doing what he can to get ahead.
      The diff in his car isn't great, and the rest of his running gear are basically just pick and purchase whenever he could afford to do so.
      His engine isn't designed to withstand a great deal of Nos, so he doesn't put that much through it.
      The other thing is, even if he went turbo or supercharger, he would still be facing the same issues. More power doesn't make things easier on what's essentially a horrible driveline.
      Edit: If he blew a head gasket on a low shot of nitrous, I can bet he would lift a head with the amount of pressure a turbo/supercharger would push through.

Leroy's intake costs more than the 240s whole engine and he's between 5.0-5.3 Everytime I've seen him lately.. he'd benefit from a turbo way more with some changes..

    Leroy needs an aero package. Make a homemade wind tunnel to test it. Come on, you know you want to.

      I seen it. That's why I'm saying even the slightest bit will make a huge difference. Like a rear diffuser and just some kind of nose cone maybe some lexan on the roof and oh boy would the times start to drop even more.

      I agree speedracer, TOTALLY & IT'S CHEAP BOLT ON STUFF compared to everything else. At the least do as you said NOSE & ROOF, then go from there ?

    I wanted soooo bad to skip to the end to see the outcome and then go back and watch it all. I think I was more nervous than James without his tool box. Way to go guys!!!
