I hate clutch protection. (im assuming thats what my issue is).
I did not do overly hot, tho I ran a couple more 8.4's but I noticed it felt like something was holding it back in 1st and a little bit after the 1-2 shift. I cut a 1.9 60ft on a run and then she cut back and I was only able to muster an 8.5 run. After letting it cool down for 30 minutes, I launched lazy (2.1 60ft) and felt it hold back a tad but after the 1-2 shift she pulled harder than Ive felt it pull on the track and I was able to pick up a mph at the end and ran another 8.4 despite the lazy 60. I need a tuner sooner than I thought I guess! Im sick of this BS holding me back. I was hoping to try and knock down some 1.8-1.9 60s and maybe see an 8.3-8.2 but nope. Clutch protection isnt having it. To be fair, the weather wasnt the best. A guy in a 2016 auto car was runnin 8.3's and he said he normally runs 8.0's all day long and was shooting for 7.9's. We were all doing better than the poor Hellcat that couldnt get his stuff sorted out. He was spinnin into the 9's most of the night and eventually ran an 8.1 I believe lol
