    Either the track just sucks incredibly bad or I can't run w/out slicks. Tried 3 times to launch on street tires. Not happening. Even left with no stall up and busted em loose. best 60' was 2.4sec. Was pissed off so I left, came home and ordered a set of Mickey Thompson ET radials 255/50-16. Think that will do it?

    We'll see.

    BTW that was only at 8psi. Love the new tune. New injectors on the way.

    That sounds really promising. Too much power is a great thing. I wish I had some power to spare. Those slicks will hook up great.

    I'm sure your torque eclipses you old HP numbers - feathering the peddle might have been the best thing you could attempt. With the turbo, your putting about 450 - 480 rwlbtq at least? Not hard to believe the tires wouldn't do the job for you. Those M/Ts, I bet will make your times great and test that axle for just how serious it is.
