Lags your a good guy and I don't want to get in to a massive argument, so I'll just say this and then leave it at that.

Killer all he has to do is throw on wheely bars and problem solved
You mite think that, but really the wheely bars must be incorporated to to the rear end as a whole because other wise they won't help you launch at all.

He does it for the crowd after he hit the wall on saturday he ask if he could go back out and do a big launch for the crowd, He said he likes to get the crowd cheering and that he did, the crowd went wild everytime this car rolled up.
Yes he might get the crowd on there feet , but he'll look like an idiot if he puts it in the wall and the crowd itn't going to pay to fix his car.
If all you build a car for is to get people on there feet then way the hell would you waste your time and money.

i'm still going to run with my theory that you don't really know what's going on. the internet lets you pretend and talk crap till the cows come home. (and theres nothing wrong with that until you start to pretend too much)
Well you can think what you want me saying something isn't going to change your mind.

if he didn't want to do massive wheelstands and run 9 second quarter mile times because he thought it was a little risky then i don't think he would have tubbed a little old 1200 jammed a moddified sr20 turbo motor in, added nitrous etc.
Yes thats ture, but why add more risk than you need to ?
Also launching with a big wheel stand isn't the fastest way down the track.

and you always have the option of steering the car...
As I said guys that do this all day everday sometimes can't keep it off the wall and I'm sure he has no where near the skill level of them.

No, but as you said this is a work in progress and sometimes you just need to know that things need to be done and untill they are you should take it easy.

9s 10s passes with a big mono dangerous or not he risks his own life to give on hell of a show. to me not dangerous just a well set up car and one gutsy driver and alot of help to get him there
A well set up drag car won't do a big wheel stand off the line because whats is the point ?its not the fastest way down the track.

Re: 570kk on steel wheels & radials Jamboree Sunday.
a number of the fastest rotary drag cars in Australia/World have recently had massive high speed accidents with their big dollar machines. got any tips for them while you are at it?
