can not get traction

anyone of you guys have a fix for no traction on a Fbody with a a4. took my son ta to the track tonight and it blew the tires right off from the start . The car as hot cam le2 heads 3.73 gears and 2800 stall. You stomp on it from a deadstop and the tires go up in smoke. Is there a easy fix for all this torque. thanks for your replies.

Re: can not get traction

With all of your mods. in the signature and I'm assuming you were racing on street tires, then it will send those tires up in smoke. As mentioned above, go to the track with a set of drag radials and see what it can do then. Also, it would benefit the car to start upgrading some of the suspension parts if you haven't already done so.

Might want to do some weight reduction off the front so that you can wheelie and weight transfer.
