    • Were you heating your slicks? I cant heat mine...no ebrake. Im ready to ditch the stupid rear disc setup for a regular aspire drum setup, so I can hook up the ebrake. Either that or hook up a line loc to the rears.

      If I tried launching at 5500 bad things would probably happen.

        Never know til you try maybe you could get mid 12's as well

        2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

        1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

        If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

        • Well I'll prolly go for broke here soon anyway, tracks opening in a couple weeks, and I'll be switching to the auto sometime this year anyway, so no biggy if I blow my trans lol. Im just stuck with the limitations of the B6T crap (no offense rocketmatt, but you know what Im talking about)

            I abuse the hell out of stock Festiva drums and haven't had an issue yet. I went through two sets of front pads in one weekend (and that was with Capri XR2 brakes) and the rear drums are still fine, and they are easy to modulate under trailbraking (pay no attention to the video where I trailbraked my arse right off the coarse :p)

            • My festiva drums never worked, even after replacing all the hardware. Never had a problem getting aspire drums to work though on any swapped car I drove.

                          • I had a e brake dragging. I fixed it last Saturday before running on Sunday. Brad I was doing a 6k 2nd gear burnout. Launching at 6k. Go for it. I'll be going for faster soon too.
