Re: Let's see your drag set up.

yep. its a 4 inch harwood with the finished under side. bolt on hood with factory latch. i will be putting some sort of pins on it. should be going close to 150mph this season. the quality wasn't really that great. took a bit of work to make it nice. it also had a crack in it when i opened the box. its like anything fiberglass, it will never be perfect.

Re: Let's see your drag set up.

I just bought a set of Billet Specialties 15x10 w/ 6.5" BS. I'm excited to get them on the car. What is the best BS for a set of front runners. I between the 15x4, 1.65" BS and 17x4.5, 2" BS.
