Hmmm, salt....Dave, my short times on DR's aren't really that bad. I'd be lucky with a 1.70 with this car. I've been 1.59's on them but on a different car with a transbrake and not making near the power this one is. Where the car is hurting is out about 100ft when it shakes (wheel hops) the tires. I have to pedal it pretty hard to keep it from compressing the discs in my back : ( The nose of the car is still in the air but it's trying to unload the rear suspension...Of course the rear susp is all stock cept for air bags and boxed lowers...
