I launch at idle because using the brakes the car WILL NOT hold itself over 1400 rpm. Plus I have a converter which should flash. The tires will spin no matter how hard I push the brake.
I don't heat the tires because off the line they don't spin. They have a tiny chirp and no spin at all. The 60 foots are 2.1-2.2 now and I cannot get any better. The traps last night were ranging from 95.62 to 96.49. I think the car should trap at least 98 or 99. My dad runs 13.8s at Lebanon Valley and traps higher and all he has is gears, tires, pulleys, and a cat back.
The car does not pull hard in the top end, and seems to dog out of the hole. It does not lay over or feel like it loses power, it just does not trap high. I am starting to get mad because I have spent thousands of dollars and low 14s SUCKS!
