my question is, why? What's the benefit of dragging your car on the ground?

^ atleast one that isn't simply a shell of a car
No "true" N-body has actually done under 12 probably...all have tube frames, or beastly engine swaps

i recall seeing a video of a black GA with slicks running just around 10seconds, thought it was a milzy prototype or something IIRC.

lol. definitely not trying to start an argument! lol. Just think if youre gonna do it, you should use the blocks or the bars, NOT THE FRAME! lol. Seems like using the frame would lead to your car falling apart. But the blocks, eh, highly doubt thatd hurt. I guess the video looked a little dumb because they were going hella slow and just going back and forth. lol. Seems like it be sick just to be on the interstate dragging with some speed to throw the sparks farther behind you. but yeh, i think it looks pretty sick.
FranktheTank, if thats your truck, i love it. i even have a picture of it saved on my ipad. Sickkkk. And does Redog really have thousands of dollars invested in his engine???

@hok666. The first video was sick. That's exactly how I'd wanna drag if I was doing it. The second video was throwin a little too wide for my taste. I'd love to try that but I ride with no pressure in my bags a lot. Like 90 percent of the time I'm slammed. I don't wanna throw sparks every time. Lol.

Some kid from chicago bought it and brought it back to a decent state from the hacked pile it was before. Now he is trying to sell it.
