I went to the track for my first time last night and it was fun but i suck.My very first run ever was like a 18.6, dont ask. I ran a couple more times but they were still hella slow 15.6 15.4 and 15.1. I am having serious traction problems. I have 3:73's and i cant barly touch the throttle or I burn out in first and second. What should I do to get some more traction? I know I need practice too. I dont have a million dollars to spend either.

I ran 14.1 Friday night, and I messed up shift to 4th...kinda missed it a lil. Every other run was 14.2 or higher.. Im kinda pissed. I should have a 13 second car. Every 60' time of the night was 2.0XX. Heres what my timeslip looked like for my best run.
r/t - .483
60' - 2.037
330 -- 5.837
1/8 -- 9.010
MPH -- 78.17
1000' - 11.825
1/4 -- 14.194
MPH -- 96.11

Heres a list of mods.. 306, wiseco pistons, e-cam, ported stock heads, stock upper/lower, full exhaust, K&N drop in filter, 3.73s, and some bald 245/50/16 tires with 32psi. That sounds a little slow, I dont see why I can dip into the 13s. Next time I run Im using DRs or slicks to try and get a more aggressive launch.

who, me?
with the dry 75 shot it dynoed 300hp 441tq with the stock heads, and with aluminum heads the 75 shot made 360hp 380tq, all at the wheels, but as soon as I got to the track I put the biggest jets in it and let it rip
