Dude.... that's suspension bounce not a power pull! You're lifting the wrong wheel for a torque pull... that pulls the DRIVER front NOT the passenger front...

Check out Todd's driver front lift -- that's POWER and HOOKED UP....


EEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

LOL, Yeah thats funny, a suspension bounce 25' away from the apex. Wonder how high I was after hitting the curb of the apex there, LMAO.

So you must mean that was my landing after the bounce, oh wait, maybe I hit a rock with the front right and then the rock shot out of the picture right when it was taken, ROFLMAO

By the way, that picture was taken in 2002 and the car and myself have progressed quite a bit since then. Looking forward to seeing you on the road course. I'll be at Buttonwillow the 28th, oh, also in June on the 5th and 6th, or you can find me at the Spectre341Challenge, come find me.

Sorry -- but I had to point out that carrying your right front is FAR FAR different than pulling your left front...

Why? Obviously two different circumstances.
