... If you think the firing order is wrong, why don't you check it?

No c-clip eliminators. I got the mini spool because I only have the stock 305 and i'm not worried about breaking anything.

Unless you are planning on trailering the car to the track, I would. Even then they area good idea. The spool won't hold the axles in if you break something in the rear, so they'll just slide right out of the axle tube.....

because the wires were shot...I took care of that a few days ago. Thats why I'm gonna go run the car Friday night and Tuesday night. I just need to get the boxed LCAs in and get some wider rubber so the wheel hop don't shake the car apart...again. It was so bad I have rips in the control arm bushing and both control arms are bowed.

 I'm not saying the car is some mighty god of a car...Its the combination of crappy tires, crappy track conditions, and 22 year old crappy factory parts. But now I have the power to expose other weaknesses like that I'll be making more progress faster.

excuses????? If I was making up excuses why would I be running the car again Friday AND Tuesday??? An excuses would be to run a ****** time and blame it on every thing but the car, and refusing to run again.

you weren't spinning when me and Ron watched your launch. The ripped and worn out suspension could BE the vibrations that you may be confusing with wheel hop.

thats cause you and Ron saw my 2nd run, the 14.7 and I didn't launch as hard. A friend of mine has the 1st on his phone and you can hear it.
