before i conclude that something is wrong with my setup im gettin a set of et streets and find some traction (im gonna pray for my stock rearend)
imagine trying to launch on a wet paved road. that was what it was like.
i believe im losing mph because i was only giving it enough gas to wind up to 4500rpm in 1st gear (less than 1/2 throttle) and then it would shift into 2nd (spining with the shift) kept it at 1/2 throttle until about 45mph.
i swear i would have never dreamed those tires wouldnt hook at all. i couldnt feel the acceleration until around 60-70mph....

back to another question, should i have gained more than 23mph in the last half of the track????

should i get the 26x10.5x16 or 26x11.5x16 et streets for a set of salad shooters????

thanks for the help

spinning made my mph and et worse
for example
14.9 at 104
14.3 at 105
14.1 at 106

can someone answer my questions in my previous post?
thanks

TTT
how would putting my 2.73 back in help traction?
i plan on a 12 bolt next year......
i have a fear of et streets and my combo would kill my rear end.
then i sell my 3.73 to one of you, and put that money toward my 12 bolt.
or maybe some DR?
