Zip, I wonder if this is the difference in the door car vs dragster, but we've lowered the top bar *front* holes to get more hit, shorter IC. Must be it is different with a door car, was thinking this would go the same for all 4 links as they are the same concept. Just wondering here thanks for the info

More bite
What is your tire pressure in the slicks? Some video would be a great help. Stripe the rears and get some video of the car leaving as viewed from the side. Have you tried stepping up the launch RPM? Are you shocks bottoming out?

i went from 6 to 7 pounds 1/4 1/2 3/4 didnt seem to change much i dont have a video camara i tried leaving at 4200 early in the season but seemed the 60' was better at 3800. i dont think its bottoming out. it had about a 100 150 more hp than my motor plus it was aluminium headed and mine is steel headed so more hp and a little less wieght. i think im going to do what zip said and raise the top bars a hole and see what it does
