I love the ether trick, works like a charm when you know what ur doin! I've been known to use non-chlorinated brake cleaner too, as long as its pretty "explosive" stuff. Usually us that trick on equipment, mowers, bobcat, etc. good trick to save ur butt in a pinch too. I 1st saw that trick on the Discovery channel, some convoy of vehicles crossing the world and they used that trick in the artic when a tire poped off the bead! Buddies Bobcat does it alot and works good on it:D

Dude, you finally mounting those things...? How long ago did you get them? Seems like 4 or 5 months ago when they were delivered to the shop.

That way is fun, I don't know how many 4 wheeler tires I've done that way. Nice vid.

yea I know I didnt wanna put them on until I had the rest of the car ready, I'd burn them off and it would be a waste burning slicks off a 12 second car.

I got a few more things for the car done, hopefuly It will be mid 11s this first run out, then Im gonna pour the bottle to her a little heavier :D

Car is a little lighter now too ;)
and I dont think I ran it at the track yet with the built trans.

Cant wait. this may stop me from trying to break my truck every weekend now lol.
