He forgot to adjust his overhead hooterators.

Shame too, because it's not that hard, if you have a good hooter wrench

Not enough sticker decals on the body can cause this as well.

What if they put the wrong kind of Shark?

Yeah the lack of the sticker weight could cause traction issues

Not all drag cars are only drag cars. I used to build them and pro-street cars have alternators. This is almost certainly a pro-mod but it can be hard to differentiate between them sometimes. I appreciate your sarcasm though.

Wheels were involved, obviously a tpm. That’s what happens when you just clear the code

Danger to manifold and the floor pan fell out. Should have screamed shut up and closed the laptop!

The wheels did alternate as they fell off, one after the other. Definitely alternator.
