What was that launch rpm? That’s getting it done on a 3.31 gear. I’ve heard many people say that’s optimum gearing for a blower car. You would think 3.73s would be better suited for a NA drag car. Mine feels lazy with the 3.73 though. I do believe you have better gearing in your tranny than I do though? Regardless, you’re getting off the li e very well and getting on down through there pretty good.

That could also be some of the problem with my short times too. I have mine set at 7C/9R.

I have t tried anything else with them yet.

What transmission shifter are you using, OEM or ?

Did you get the chance to try dropping the rear tire pressure to the 9-12 psi range ?
i have an mgw shifter

tried dropping down to 10psi last week didn’t seem to help on launch or shifts with traction and added rear end wiggle on the top end

Hummmmm.
Have you ever had an assistant read tire temperature with a hand held infrared temp gun after the burnout to know the exact tire tread/slick temp before staging ?
