i cannot get a good launch on my car.. its a 1997 SS stock. i think it is the tires fault. . . . and mine. it either spins all the way though first and part of second or bogs down.. what do i do? i have tried all diff rpms and methods from feathering to dumping. i dont know what to do.

 

oh yeah the tires are kuhmo 712's supras. 275/40/17's

 

those tires suck for traction I went to Nitto 555R2's and it was a big help.

 

well the tires are pretty new and came with the car so getting new tires are not an option right now
any hints on what to do? or things i can get like subframe connectors that will help? (i plan on getting jet-hot LT's and true duals so keep that in mind when suggesting stuff.)

 

i would get traction bars and or drag springs maby drag shocks up front

 

Here is about the only thing you can do short of buying more parts and I would think if you had money to buy parts you could buy sticky tires, so here goes, when you get to the line and stage put one foot on the brake and bring the revs up to about 1500, your gonna have to do a heel/toe thing with the brake and the gas, when the last amber comes down dump the clutch and feed the gas slowly, don,t mash the gas pedal but don,t go so slow that you don,t go anywhere. Its a thing you have to get a feel for, basically you want to feed the gas a little slowly to keep from blowing the tires off, this is alot easier in an auto so you are going to have to practice.
