I really figured with my suspension mods I would see a 1.8 60' at the track, even with nittos. The car was getting great wieght transfer, but I just wasn't able to get alot of runs in before the track cooled off.

To let you know how bad the entire deal was with the big cars breaking and causing everyone to wait, my 2nd run was at 3:03, and my 3rd was at 5:20!

So does anyone have any idea about what to do with the 2nd gear spin? I don't know if I can just change a setting on the suspension or what? Weight transfer in 2nd isn't anything like it is in 1st, but I was really mystified.

I don't see how I can spin like that in 2nd gear on the track but not the street. It almost seemed like they prepped the hell out of the launch area and left the rest of the track alone?

The motor is pretty much stock other than cams. The setup is a vortech SQ @ 10 PSI, VT stage 2 cams, full exhaust and a couple intake boltons.

Very nice.

Every video you post, you miss gears & now you miss gears at the track? What is the deal man?
